Shownotes

Mila Knight returns to The Burn for another visit to share something different and special from our usual format.  We often wonder what came next after an episode airs - this is that episode!  In 2022 Mila was our guest reading her piece “Crawling in My Skin” from Wildfire Magazine’s 2021 “Body” issue.  In that story Mila shared how she turned to music for solace in hard times following her cancer diagnosis at 38.  In that episode, Mila revealed she was working on recording a song that she was not yet ready to share.  Now, Mila is ready to share her song, "The Longest Goodbye", in this episode. April and Mila will discuss the inspiration for her song, caregiver roles in cancer, and what pushed Mila to complete the song.  They will also talk about Mila’s song writing process, what Mila has in the works, as well as fundraising and advocacy.
