Episode #25 The Exhaustion of Fighting Your own mind

In this episode, we explore why our minds fixate on cancer (and then NOT wanting to think about it) and where the real exhaustion comes from. Pro tip: it is not from the thoughts themselves, but from fighting them.

This conversation is for anyone living with cancer who feels stuck in the loop of thinking about it, judging themselves for it, and wishing they could just “move on.” It’s here to offer you some orientation, steadiness and relief — not answers, tools, or fixes.

In this episode, we touch on:

• Why thinking about cancer is a normal response to prolonged uncertainty

• The difference between roles we inhabit and who we actually are

• How judging yourself for your thoughts creates more suffering than the thoughts themselves

• A simple way to build capacity and trust with your own mind over time

I also host coffee chats and community Happy Hours for women who want to explore these conversations in connection — you’re always welcome to join when it feels right.
