Molly Kochan was diagnosed with breast cancer at a young age. Despite the shock, she chose to live boldly and share her journey. “It’s just something I’m going through, not who I am,” she once said.
Her story became the inspiration for Dying for Sex, a hit TV series starring Michelle Williams. The show follows Molly’s real experiences—her divorce, new relationships, and her fight to embrace life.
Molly and her best friend Nikki Boyer turned her story into a podcast before it reached television. She believed intimacy gave her strength. “Being sexual is the antithesis to death. It makes me feel alive,” she explained.
Through these experiences, Molly found healing, self-acceptance, and even love. “I am in love. With me,” she wrote before her passing in 2019.
Molly’s legacy continues to inspire people facing illness and hardship. Her courage reminds us that even in the darkest times, we can reclaim joy, love, and purpose.
Her journey leaves one powerful question: How would you choose to truly live?
