Cancer was never something I wanted to define me, yet it inevitably shaped my life in profound ways. In this episode, I share how my diagnosis both challenged and transformed me, providing new perspectives and unexpected gifts. At the very cancer center where I was treated, I now work to support other patients through my shared experiences, offering them the comfort and encouragement I found valuable during my own treatment.Through anecdotes of resilience, like the humorous evolution of my post-cancer hair and the new-found confidence in my voice, I highlight the often-overlooked lighter aspects of this serious journey. Join me as I navigate the funny, frustrating, and ultimately enlightening path of living with cancer, celebrating the important connections and insights gained along the way.
