What happens when life throws you curveballs like breast cancer, midlife dating, and unexpected sisterhoods? You turn them into stories, humor, and inspiration—and that’s exactly what Julie Edelman has done.
I’m thrilled to welcome author and humorist Julie Edelman for an empowering and laugh-filled conversation about love, resilience, and the unexpected sisterhoods that form through life’s detours. Julie shares the inspiration behind her latest novel, The Accidental Sisterhood, and opens up about her personal journey through breast cancer, dating after 50, and finding joy in life’s chaos.
