Unfiltered Healing: Real Talk on Life, Love and Healing after Cancer Survival

Cancer may have changed everything, but it didn’t stop me from being a mom. In this episode, I talk about trying to stay present for my boys and how motherhood gave me purpose while I was fighting to survive.

During chemo, I created routines to make myself feel stronger; water, walking, makeup, movement. In this episode, I share how I fought to keep a sense of control when everything in me felt powerless.

This week’s episode is about the people we meet in the middle of our hardest battles and the unexpected ways they change us.

Chemo didn’t just make me sick, it changed the way I saw myself. In this episode, I talk about losing my hair, my eyebrows, my lashes, and the struggle of not recognizing the woman staring back at me.

After surgery, I hoped the hardest part was behind me. Instead, I learned chemotherapy was next. In this episode, I share what it felt like hearing the treatment plan, facing the fear of losing my hair, and the heartbreaking day it finally started falling out. From the shower where reality hit to the difficult decision to shave my head, this is the story of one of the most emotional moments of my cancer journey.

After surgery, I hoped the hardest part was behind me but chemotherapy was next. In this episode, I share what it felt like hearing the treatment plan, facing more changes to my body, and realizing the fight against cancer wasn’t far from over.

After my bilateral mastectomy, healing at home came with support from family; but also the painful reality of seeing a body I no longer recognized. In this episode, I talk about grief, body image, and learning to look at myself again after cancer.

The day of surgery is when everything becomes real. In this episode, I share what it felt like walking into a bilateral mastectomy; the fear, the unknown, and the reality of losing a part of myself while fighting to live.

Every appointment felt like a punch. In this episode, I share the reality of cancer that no one talks about — the constant changes, difficult decisions, and emotional rollercoaster. From treatment options to IVF and loss, this is what it really looks like to fight for your life while trying to hold onto hope.

In this episode, I talk about something many people don’t fully understand; how cancer actually starts. Breaking it down in a simple way while sharing why understanding our bodies matters more than we think.

In this episode, I talk about the doctor visits that changed everything. What I thought was one tumor turned into three… and the decisions I had to make became bigger than I ever imagined. From hearing hard truths to making life-altering choices, this is the part of the journey no one prepares you for.

Everything changes after the diagnosis… but no one prepares you for how fast it all hits.

In this episode, I share the moment it became real for me the confusion, the fear, and the overwhelming weight of hearing “stage two.” But I also talk about the turning point… the decision to advocate for myself, ask questions, and seek clarity when something didn’t feel right.

This is a reminder that your voice matters and you don’t have to navigate this alone. 💛

Listen to your intuition.

In this episode, I share why I chose to open up about my cancer journey. As a private person, it wasn’t easy but I realized I wasn’t the only one carrying it. This is about choosing vulnerability, allowing support, and learning that you don’t have to go through hard things alone.

The day after Christmas, I heard the words that changed everything:

"You have cancer""

In this raw and emotional episode of Unfiltered Healing, I share the moment my world stopped, the fear that followed, and the one thought that kept me going... I'm not leaving my boys.

If you've ever faced the unimaginable, this is for you.

Because the fear is real... but so is survival.
