On today's episode, we talk to Sarah Marie Thiessen, a young entrepreneur, go-getter and all around hustler. Her passion for travel has brought her around the world, until her health brought her back home. Sarah is a destination wedding photographer, filmmaker, and founder of Wild Love Media—but her wildest adventure wasn’t on a mountaintop or at a dream elopement in the forest. In February 2021, while traveling in Australia on a study visa for business management and social media marketing, she was diagnosed with HER2-positive breast cancer at just 27 years old. What followed was a whirlwind of chemotherapy, failed surgeries, and ultimately, a cross-continental health journey that brought her back to Canada for answers—and more operations. While the original breast cancer is in remission, an inoperable tumor with the ROS-1 gene mutation was discovered and she is now on lifelong targeted therapy to help prolong her health and manage the disease. Her story is not just about survival—but about listening to the body, advocating for your own care, and finding beauty in the in-between. Today, Sarah channels her fierce, untamed love for life into storytelling—both through her camera and her voice. She believes every soul has a story worth honoring, and that even in the hardest seasons, there is light to be captured.You can follow her on Facebook at Sarah Marie Thiessen (Sarah Wild) ⁠https://www.facebook.com/sarah.wild.3958914 On Instagram @wildlovemedia https://www.instagram.com/wildlovemedia?igsh=MWd1ZXNzcWhlcDJzMw==And check out her portfolio ⁠https://www.wildlovemedia.com/ This is a 2 part episode, due to Sarah's dog getting loose and us needing to break early lol.
