Today's guest is Lauren Huffmaster, certified cancer coach, founder of Adventure Therapy Foundation, podcast host, author, and inspiration. She has been in treatment for breast cancer since 2015, diagnosed at age 35. She is now living each day to the fullest with metastatic breast cancer.
We talk all about the emotional side effects of cancer, especially fear, isolation, and broken identity, the importance of grieving and "the void" (where active treatment ends), post-traumatic growth, hope vs. fear, and so much more!
Emotional healing is an aspect of cancer that isn't addressed nearly enough. This conversation is just the tip of the iceberg. You can get more by connecting with Lauren and reading her book.
