In this deeply personal episode of When She Pivots, Lauren turns the microphone toward Cassie for a conversation about living through a year that required everything—and asked for very little certainty in return.
Cassie reflects on a season marked by profound loss, medical challenges with her daughter, welcoming a new baby, and navigating a home build—all at the same time.
