Facing Cancer Young: The Challenges No One Prepares You For

Being diagnosed with cancer at a young age can feel incredibly isolating. While your peers may be building careers, starting families, and planning for the future, suddenly you're navigating treatment decisions, fertility concerns, relationships, finances, and fears you never expected to face. In this episode of the Wellness Warriors Podcast, De'Ann sits down with Dr. Christina Pozo-Kaderman, Senior Psychologist at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and co-author of Coping with Cancer in Early Adulthood, to explore the unique challenges young adults face during and after cancer. Drawing from more than 35 years of experience, Dr. Pozo-Kaderman shares insights on finding support, advocating for yourself, fertility and sexual health, and family-focused care. She also shares a special gift for listeners: free copies of Coping with Cancer in Early Adulthood for those who need one. You can connect with her through the Dana-Farber Young Adult Program to learn more. And as you support your body through a demanding healing journey, cellular energy matters too.
