A mother, A daughter, A story begun by one and finished by another.It was such an honor to have Emily Johnson on the show! She she shared her authentic self, how it feels to grow up with a mom with terminal cancer, to growing through grief and how she became an unexpected published author.When Emily was 13, her mom was diagnosed with advanced stage Ovarian Cancer. Statistically, she had very little time left. Shortly after, she began writing a novel, Bird of Paradise. Emily would discover much later that from the beginning her mom intended this to be a life gift for her.  Shortly after her mom's passing, Emily found a letter from her, with a copy of the unfinished manuscript and one request - that she finish the story for her.Empowered Within Host:Hi, I'm Jennifer!
