“Listening to you is like having a best friend who climbed into my head, turned off chemo fog, reconnected the ability to thoughtfully synthesize information and then stepped back out of my brain allowing for years of fear, anxiety, depression, self doubt and insecurity to just wash away.
Thank you SO much for using your voice to explain things about the cancer journey that I have never been able to put into words much less share with my daughters.
I was diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer a few years ago, and after all of my chemo I had both breasts removed (including nipples) and immediate reconstruction. I had a bare chest with significant scarring. I couldn’t look at my chest nor allow anyone else. I was ashamed and I lost all sense of self. I’m still healing emotionally from it and a year after I found a medical tattooist who recreated what I had lost. The transformation healed part of my soul. I still have many scars but I no longer catch glimpses of myself in the mirror that shake me to my core.
Recurrence of my type of cancer is high with metastasis to blood and brain if it happens.
I really look forward to hearing you talk about how you shifted your thinking so much away from fear and are thriving.
I will be listening to every one of your podcast from start to finish. Thankyou so much for doing this and being so open and vulnerable.”
