Description

Back on The Rewrite...She’s known for her humor and heart—but this time, Rachel Sobel (@whineandcheezits) is bringing something even deeper to The Rewrite.In this powerful conversation, Rachel opens up about her recent breast cancer diagnosis and the whirlwind 26 days between hearing the news and undergoing a double mastectomy.
We talk about:
  • How she told her young daughters
  • The way her second (and final) husband truly showed up
  • The role humor played in surviving the hard days
  • The community she’s built—and what it means to be seen, heard, and held
  • The messages that have resonated most
  • And what The Rewrite means to her now, after this life-altering chapter
