We’ve all had those days, right? Where we feel tired and crappy… where our health just hasn’t been right. Maybe you’ve even consulted Doctor Google and either panicked, laughed or both when it spat out a cancer diagnosis. 

But what if that diagnosis was actually right. And your whole life was flipped upside down in an instant.

Mamamia’s Briony Benjamin was 30 years-old. Riding high in her career interviewing celebrities, producing hilarious viral videos and thinking she had her whole life ahead of her, when after feeling pretty crap for a while and brushing it off she received some crushing news. 

“When I think back on it, my body was sending me all the warning signs that something wasn’t quite right but I didn’t know how yet to trust that.”

This conversation is about how to rise to the challenge when things go pear shaped. And how not all storms come to disrupt your life. Some come to clear your path.

Briony shares how to figure out what’s truly important in life, grab onto the job and gain the confidence to bounce back from the lows.
