Get ready for a rollercoaster ride with this week's guest, Jocelyn Kervin! She's not just rocking the high school music scene but also strikes a chord in the world of Multiple Myeloma awareness. Imagine going from running 5K races around Toronto to receiving a life-altering diagnosis at 43 of a disease you've never even heard of!

We chat about everything from the rapid advancements in MM treatments to the urgent need for early diagnosis. Once considered an "older person's cancer," MM is making its appearance in younger populations, and Jocelyn is here to say it's time for a wake-up call, especially for family physicians and the general public.

Oh, and you can't miss the jaw-dropping twist—how a fractured rib during sex led Jocelyn to the X-ray that quite literally saved her life!
