About this episode

Clea Shearer is the co-founder of The Home Edit, star of the hit Netflix series, Get Organized with The Home Edit, and a New York Times bestselling author who’s sharing the lessons she’s learned in her cancer journey in her new book, Cancer Is Complicated and Other Unexpected Lessons I’ve Learned. Clea opens up to Hoda about how she learned to advocate more for herself amidst her cancer journey, the importance of accepting help from others and why she views her diagnosis not as “why me,” but as “why not me.” In addition, she shares how she spoke to her kids about her diagnosis and how her perspective has broadened after the trying experience.
