It’s Valentine’s week — and what better time to talk about a broken heart? Specifically, mine.

After months of trying to figure out why my heart rate was slowing down, I finally learned the real cause wasn’t medication… it was a heart rhythm issue that required a pacemaker.

Yes, I now officially have upgraded bionics.

In this episode, I talk about:

  • Discovering bradycardia and heart rhythm problemsMeeting the third cardiologist who finally listened
  • The decision to get a pacemaker
  • Facing my fear of anesthesia
  • What it feels like to come out the other side

SPOILER ALERT: I didn’t die. Which means I’ll be back next week.
