Seven-time Olympic medalist Shannon Miller sits down with Vince Ferguson for a deeply personal conversation that goes far beyond her extraordinary gymnastics career. Miller reflects on being part of the legendary “Magnificent Seven,” the perspective that comes with looking back 30 years after the 1996 Olympics, and the lessons she carried from elite athletics into motherhood, business, health and everyday life. The conversation takes an emotional turn as Miller shares her experience with ovarian cancer. She explains how a routine doctor's appointment she nearly cancelled ultimately led to her diagnosis, despite initially feeling healthy. She talks candidly about the physical and emotional challenges of surgery and chemotherapy, the importance of accepting help, and the realization that cancer does not care about someone's accomplishments, status or Olympic medals. Her experience ultimately inspired Salto Health, a company created to help cancer survivors and caregivers navigate the practical and emotional realities of the cancer journey.
