Breast Cancer Awareness Month: A Triple-Negative Survivor’s Story of Hope

Former U.S. national team gymnast, actress, and singer-songwriter Jenn Greenhut joins Aaron for an honest, funny, and deeply moving conversation about turning life’s hardest moments into purpose. Diagnosed with stage IV triple-negative breast cancer just months after a third failed round of IVF, Jenn was given a 12% chance of surviving five years. Then her oncologist told her something that changed everything: had she gotten pregnant, it likely would have killed her. Jenn shares how that moment helped her see cancer as a gift, how she and her husband Larry wrote Everyone Needs a Larry from both the patient and caregiver perspectives, and why she founded Love, Zero Negative and the Zero Negative Foundation to support patients and fund cancer research. Plus, the wild story of landing a scene alongside her sister in Nancy Meyers’ What Women Want, her live storytelling nights, and her new definition of a good life.
