Ep:#57 From Broadway to brain cancer, to proving the power of purpose with Catherine Wreford

Have you ever stopped to think of how powerful a challenge can be? Or how purpose can literally save your life? This is what we’re going to talk about today. And we have Catherine Wreford, one of the strongest people I know, to tell us her incredible story. From staring on Broadway, to running a mortgage company, to nursing school. And then the unthinkable happened. A brain tumour, the size of her fist. But, yet again, Catherine demonstrates just what can happen when you put your mind to something. And that cancer is just a word, and not a sentence. There is so much here. I promise you’ll laugh, you’ll get goosebumps, and there may be tears from Cath and me. But without question you’ll come out realizing just what is possible when you push through adverse situations, put your mind to something, and follow your heart. And Catherine sums up our conversation perfectly, saying “You need to get out there and live life. If you want to be part of life, you need to do it yourself”. Words to live by. So grab that favourite beverage or throw on those running shoes, and enjoy this conversation with Catherine.
