This conversation with Lori Ann Wood is such an important one for everyone, but especially for women. Lori is a survivor of heart failure. She talks about how she didn't think any of the symptoms she had up to 10 years prior would be heart disease because she had no family history. We talk about doubt and how she learned that "I didn't want the answers; I wanted to know it was ok to ask the questions." Her new book, Divine Detour, is out today wherever you buy books, so order your copy today and enjoy this conversation!
