Today we’re joined by the first Front Row recipient to be on the show. Melissa Weaver is a licensed clinical social worker, from Richmond, Virginia. She’s a breast cancer fighter and survivor, and is someone who has pursued life with pure passion through all the challenges that come with fighting cancer (chemotherapy, radiation, emotional trauma…).
Melissa has not only challenged Jon to live differently and inspired him, but she’s inspiring the world one step at a time, and she’s going to tell us everything she’s doing and will continue to do to inspire and impact the world in the biggest and best way she can.
