In this episode, Tracy shares her journey from a young girl diagnosed with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy to adulthood finding out thanks to her husband that she was in heart failure and would need a to have a heart transplant.

It wasn’t until her early 40’s that doctors told her that her conditioned had worsened and that she need to stop all physical activity. Tracy was put on a heart transplant list and began the long process of finding a donor match despite what she was told were very low odds.

Then to everyone’s surprise Tracy got a call from Cedars-Sinai in LA saying they were going ahead with a transplant. On May 31st, 2020 Tracy was gifted a second chance at life from her heart donor Rick ❤️

In this weeks episode I was in conversation with Dr. Jonathan Fisher who is a Mount Sinai and Harvard trained Cardiologist and author of the just released book “Just One Heart: A Cardiologist’s Guide to Healing, Health, and Happiness”

Grateful Jonathan stuck with me on this as we had several technical issues. I’m feeling humbled and super grateful we were able to make this powerful and much needed conversation happen!!

Jonathan is truly a special human being and from what he shared, unlike any doctor I’ve met or worked with in my near 20 year career in health care!

There were so many nuggets and amazing takeaways from Jonathan during our conversation that quite easily makes this my favourite podcast episode thus far!!

❤️❤️❤️
