Clea Shearer: My Cancer Will Be Purposeful

The Sounds True Podcast Network. Cancer is complicated is something I kept saying over and over again. When people would ask me about certain moments of my journey, I kept saying, you know, it well It's complicated, you know, because it it is i I often found myself with answers that were not black or white. In this episode of Insights at the Edge, my guest is Clea Scherer.

She's the author of the new book, Cancer is Complicated and Other unexpected lessons I've learned. You may be familiar with Cleo Share as the co-founder of the Home Edit, a home and lifestyle company that began with the goal of reinventing home organizing and merging it with design. It's a hugely successful brand. The home edit was acquired by Reese Witherspoon's Hello Sunshine, and it was in this same season of the company being acquired, the spring of 2022, that Clea Scherer was diagnosed with an aggressive form of stage two breast cancer at the age of 40, and her book, Cancer is Complicated, chronicles her journey, her treatment,

and recovery process. The book offers the energy of companionship. It's loving, compassionate, funny. It's a friend to you on a cancer journey if a book could be such a friend. Stay with us.
