When the Hidden Becomes Everything: Julie Hyde on Melanoma, Misdiagnosis & Leading Your Own Life
Description
What happens when the thing you barely notice becomes the one thing that threatens to take everything?
In this powerful episode of Suddenly Different, leadership mentor and speaker Julie Hyde shares her stage 3 melanoma story — beginning with a “wart” on her foot, dismissed, misdiagnosed, and quietly spreading.
Julie takes us inside the shock of hearing “it’s cancer,” the freefall that follows, and the choice to move from victim to self-leader. She speaks candidly about advocating for your body, navigating a broken system, the power of the pause, and how near-death clarity reshaped her work, relationships, and priorities.
This is a conversation about listening sooner, asking harder questions, and choosing life with fierce intention.
