About the Podcast

Courageous
Honest conversations and smart strategy for rebuilding a bold life, brand, or business — even when speaking up comes at a cost. Hosted by Janet Murray.
This is not a cancer podcast.

It’s about what happens when your voice is threatened - by illness, by public shaming, by fear - and you decide to keep speaking anyway.

In 2025, I was diagnosed with breast cancer while navigating public cancellation for defending women’s sex-based rights. Now I’m documenting the rebuild: of my health, my business, and my voice - with honesty, strategy and as much courage as I can muster.
