    Tim Sohn is a two-time best-selling author of the Perspectives on Cancer book series, a heartfelt collection that assures cancer patients, survivors, and supporters they are not alone in their journey. Through these books, he inspires individuals to share their cancer experiences when they feel ready. Tim is also the visionary behind the global, weekly livestream show Showing Up: Perspectives on Cancer and the annual in-person events of the same name. Both platforms foster connection, support, and understanding within the cancer community

    In this episode, Timothy shares the power of sharing stories from Perspective on Invisible Illness: Living and Thriving Beyond What Can’t Be Seen. We discuss the fear of judgment that often keeps people from opening up about unseen illnesses and how finding supportive communities can foster healing and connection.

    Timothy shares how resilience, gratitude, and embracing life’s small joys can transform even the darkest moments. He reflects on mantras like finding solace in nature and leaning on loved ones. We also hear inspiring stories, and how these experiences remind us that we’re not alone.

    Randy McNeely, a former cybersecurity professional, is now a passionate advocate for kindness. With over 20 years of experience in both private and public sectors, he helps entrepreneurs and organizations overcome toxic cultures through his 4-Stage Kindness Habit Framework and 5-Step Kindness Givers' Formula. Randy’s warm-hearted approach empowers businesses to thrive by fostering kindness-driven behaviors, creating stronger relationships, and achieving outstanding results.
