What Not To Say To Someone With A Brain Tumour (And What To Say Instead)

What Not To Say To Someone With A Brain Tumour (And What To Say Instead)"At least it's not cancer." "Could be worse." "You'll be fine." Please. Stop.When someone is going through something really difficult, most people mean well. They really do. But meaning well and saying the right thing are two very different things.In this episode Beth shares the things people actually said to her after her brain tumour diagnosis. From the woman in aisle three of Tesco who hadn't been in touch for years, to the person who cheerfully mentioned their friend with a brain tumour died. All well-meaning. All spectacularly unhelpful.But this episode isn't just about what not to say. Beth gets into the practical how-tos of actually showing up for someone going through something hard. The phrases that open a door instead of closing one. Why saying "I don't know what to say" is one of the most powerful things you can offer. And why fixing, reassuring and shutting things down is the one thing people need least.We all deserve to know what to say in difficult times. This episode will help.Email: ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠ Website: ⁠⁠resetwithbeth.co.uk⁠⁠Instagram: @reset_with_beth
