Neosho has fought so many battles in her life and she continues to win! This episode is full of stories trials Neosho went through and she fought her way through them. In this interview I kept coming back to the word warrior. I truly believe that word is perfect to sum up this episode. Neosho was also so fun to talk to, she's funny and she finds the humor in life.

Neosho's Bio:
Neosho C. Ponder, Ph.D. symbolizes perseverance, strength, and resilience. This left-handed, professional auntie is an educator, author, consultant, and woman of faith. In 2016, one year after graduating from Howard University with a Ph.D. in Communication, Culture, and Media Studies, her life took a sharp turn, when she discovered a lump in her left breast. By recounting the hardships of unexpected homelessness, chemo treatment, surgical complications, losing loved ones, and the day-to-day journey through cancer, Neosho explores how the intersection of her faith in God, resilience, and humor saved her in her first book, God’s Got Jokes.
