I sat down with Briony Benjamin from Social Parade to talk about how being diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma at the age of 31 has changed her life and what she has learned coming out the other side.
In this episode we are talking about Briony’s story. How her life changed over night from being a successful Executive Producer for Mamamia to being diagnosed with Stage 4 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma throwing her a curveball that she did not see coming.
We are talking about Briony’s diagnosis, her journey through Chemotherapy, what got her through this very challenging time and what she has learned along the way.
What is important when you get the worst news of your life? What is important when you suddenly don’t know how much longer you have on this planet. Briony is opening up about her journey, sharing very openly, honestly and raw what it was that helped her during this very difficult time of her life.
Briony has captured her journey all along and her video ‘You only get one life’ has been seen over 1.2 Million times. She has also just written her first book ‘Life is Tough But So Are You’ which is available for pre-order on Booktopia and Amazon and will launch in Australia in August 2021.
Briony is an incredible human and I really hope that her experience, what she has learned along the way and what she is sharing with us now will help you along your journey. The lessons can be applied in life overall.
