Written in the Cards: Emily's Story Part One

Emily has stage 4 terminal cancer. Emily has stage 4 terminal cancer. When Behk heard her story, she knew it needed to be told. Emily said yes.

This is the beginning of something different. Over the coming episodes, we'll be following Emily through the defining chapters of her life — her military service, the PTSD that followed, the toxic relationships that tested everything she thought she knew about herself, and the long road to healing that brought her here. To us. To this microphone. On her terms.

In this first episode, Emily takes us back to the beginning — enlistment, duty, trauma, and the slow disillusionment that comes from giving everything to something that doesn't always give back. It's the foundation of a story that is still being written.

Emily isn't telling this story for herself. She's telling it for everyone who comes after her. That's what legacy looks like.

We are honored beyond words to help her do this. Please take care of yourselves, listening to this series — and take care of each other.

Narcissists, Gaslighters, & Cheaters, Oh My! — real folks, real stories, survival & healing.
