Beyond Diagnosis: Cultivating a Thriving Mindset
Episode 119
When the hospital visits stop and everyone expects you to "get back to normal," it can leave you wondering… Who even am I now?
In this heartfelt episode of Confidence After Cancer, I share the 3 powerful identity shifts that helped me stop feeling stuck in survival mode and start creating a new life on my terms.
If you're feeling lost after cancer treatment, know this—you're not alone, and you are not broken. You're healing, you're whole, and your next chapter starts now.
💡 What You’ll Learn:
- Why the end of treatment often brings an unexpected identity crisis
- How to shift from patient to whole person (and let go of fear)
- How I went from people-pleasing to peace-protecting—and how you can too
- What it means to truly embrace your identity as a thriver, not just a survivor
- Small, powerful habits you can use now to reclaim your time, energy, and joy
🧘♀️ Quotes to Remember:
“I am not broken. I am healing. I am whole.”
“You don’t need to explain every ‘no.’ Boundaries are how we protect our peace.”
“Being a thriver looks different for everyone—but it starts with giving yourself permission.”
