About this listen
In today’s episode of Her kind of brave:
We sit down with DANNI DUNCAN, a mum of four, fitness coach and one of the most resilient women you will ever meet. Danni found herself navigating bowel cancer only months after giving birth, and after months of being dismissed by the medical system.
She shares the moment her world split open, how she survived treatment while mothering a baby, and why trusting your intuition might be the most important skill a woman can have. This conversation is raw, grounding and unforgettable.
