Ladies and gentlemen, prepare to be inspired again. Our guest today is Bill Potts, an amazing individual who has battled cancer FIVE times and won. He is the author of Up for the Fight: How to Advocate for Yourself as You Battle Cancer - from a Five-Time Survivor, a tell-all book about his journey from diagnosis to remission, providing a guiding hand for many who find themselves in the same, often disheartening place. 

Despite currently being in his sixth battle with cancer, Bill remains an inspiring figure as an athlete, dedicated father, and loving husband. 

In this episode, we'll discuss how it is possible to not just survive cancer but also to truly thrive and live fully after facing this difficult challenge. I hope that Bill's story and insights will provide encouragement and hope to you as they did to me.
