Who is She? Rediscovering Self-Love After Cancer

from Living Our Breast Lives · host Living Our Breast Lives

Join Wren and Brittany as they shed light on the beauty that lies within! Let's talk, SELF LOVE after CANCER! Loving yourself, physically, can be exhausting, let alone after a cancer diagnosis, whether early or late stage. Sometimes, the person looking back at you in the mirror is not someone you recognize anymore, and it's even harder if you no longer like what you see. Let's get back to that place of love, acceptance, patience, and remember to give ourselves grace for what our bodies have endured! Self love. Of course you can love yourself, emotionally. Whether you believe in your heart that you are a good person, whether you're proud of your beliefs and values, whether you can go to bed at night knowing that you did right by yourself and others. But what about loving ourselves, physically? How many people struggle with body image on a regular basis? Loving yourself physically is exhausting, let alone after a cancer diagnosis. The physical changes; the hair loss, the weight gain, the breast surgeries, the many scars. As women, you feel stripped of everything, especially your femininity, and the hardest part is no longer recognizing yourself anymore. We must remember that beauty absolutely exists AFTER breast cancer; body changes and all! Embrace it! A breast cancer diagnosis makes it really easy to lose yourself, but embracing the new you is what's most important. Life after breast cancer involves lifting ourselves up each and every day! The goal is to find that SELF LOVE again! "Sometimes you have to look at yourself as a butterfly; going through this whole transformation. Yes, you don't look like the person pre diagnosis, but look at how much you've grown as a person. Physical beauty is one thing, but we must remember that beauty radiates from the inside." - Brittany Follow us on instagram at @livingourbreastlives
