#268 It's OK to Miss What Used to Be

This episode dives into our complex emotional journey after a breast cancer diagnosis.   Healing and navigating life aren't linear processes. While having a positive outlook is essential, it's equally important to be realistic and accept the truth, however uncomfortable it might be.   The truth of cancer is that it's a mix of good scans, challenging outcomes, and the back-and-forth of emotions. And guess what? It's okay to feel! It's human.   We also touched on how changes in our body after treatment can sometimes make us nostalgic for things we used to love. But it's essential to remember we can grieve these losses without discounting our present joys. Lastly, external remarks like "at least you're alive" might come our way, but always know your feelings are valid.   Here's a gentle reminder that you're never alone in this. Let's keep lifting each other up and finding strength in shared experiences.  Referred to in this episode:  Better Than Before Breast Cancer Life Coaching Membership  Episode #25 Young Breast Cancer Survivors  Follow me on Social Media:  Facebook  Instagram  Pinterest  YouTube
