In this episode of 'Slightly Radiated: Fully Human', Monica and I dive into the complicated relationship between self-care, guilt, and healing after cancer.
Together, we explore:
* Why self-care is essential but so often feels selfish
* How guilt can sneak in as a form of self-sabotage
* The pressure to always appear grateful after cancer
* The importance of self-compassion when caring for others
* Sharing experiences and honest conversations can help others feel less isolated
* Every healing journey is unique and personal
* Healing involves navigating both highs and lows
This is a raw and vulnerable conversation about the uncomfortable truths of life beyond treatment—where healing is about learning, unlearning, and finding softness with ourselves.
👉 If this conversation resonates, share it with someone who might need a reminder that they’re not alone in their healing journey.
