Do you remember the exact moment your life split into "before" and "after"?
On 23 February 2023, former nurse educator and mother of five, Bron Watson, received a second cancer diagnosis. The first was breast cancer. This time, it was incurable, but treatable. In this opening episode of Serenity Uprising, Bron tells the unvarnished story of what happened between that phone call, the specialist's room, and the long weeks of waiting in between.
If you have ever sat in the silence after a terrifying result… if you have struggled to explain what is happening to family and friends because you do not have the answers yet… or if you are living with the weight of a "chronic, not curable" diagnosis, this episode is for you.
Key takeaways:
What it is really like to move from a "curable" to an "incurable but treatable" cancer diagnosis
Why she now separates "healing" from "curing" – and how that shift became the foundation of The Serenity Project and this podcast
An honest invitation to step away from "fighting" language and explore serenity as an ongoing practice, even in the middle of fear and uncertainty
This is not a list of tips. It is a story. And it is a love letter to anyone who has heard the words "you have cancer," to carers who do not know what to say, and to survivors who still feel their stomach flip every time a scan is booked.
Serenity Uprising: Healing with Cancer exists to walk beside you in that space – with honesty, compassion and the reminder that healing is not a destination you reach, but a practice of returning to yourself, again.
