Lorraine doesn’t shy away from the hard stuff — instead, she affectionately refers to her breast cancer journey as her “adventure.” With warmth and wit, she shares the highs, lows, and unexpected lessons that came with her diagnosis, treatment, and recovery.Together, we talk about the quiet forms of grief that accompany illness - the changes to identity, body, and belonging  and how laughter, honesty, and connection became part of Lorraine’s healing.Full of heart and humour, Lorraine’s story reminds us that strength doesn’t always mean stoicism, and that even in the face of loss, there can be lightness, courage, and joy. Join us as we dive into an adventure of resilience, healing, and rediscovering life after loss.
