Better Than Before Breast Cancer with The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach Laura Lummer

Breast cancer and food confusion are real!
We want to be healthy, eat good food, reduce our toxic burden, and be mindful of our budget.
But how do you know what food labels are telling you about the food you’re thinking of buying?
What do all of these labels mean and what’s best for you?
In this episode, we’ll dig into the truth behind labels when it comes to choosing eggs.
According to Statista.com, in 2023 the estimated consumption of eggs in the U.S. was 281.3 eggs per person.
These nutrition powerhouses contain many vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, protein, and fat, and they’re a good source of heart-healthy nutrients like potassium, folate, and B vitamins.
But are they all created equally?
Check out this episode and learn what you’re getting when you pick up a dozen eggs.

Breast cancer and life can have a lot of grief, loss, and fear involved, and we can either use those emotions to create even more suffering, or we can choose to use them in ways that inspire us to live even better lives.
Recently the anniversary date of the loss of my brother came around and it got me to thinking about all the ways that loss impacted my life.
In this episode, I'll share all the ways that I turned that grief into growth.
It certainly wasn’t easy and it took time and work to understand how to use fear and grief to my benefit rather than resisting them and allowing them to create even more pain in my life.
This is an episode of hope and encouragement in the face of sadness.

Is Breast cancer just bad luck?
Here’s what  Breast Cancer UK had to say about that based on a 2015 study published in the Journal of Nature:
“This study confirms what Breast Cancer UK has recognized, that environmental factors such as exposure to toxic chemicals are also key risk factors for certain cancers. It should form part of any cancer prevention strategy.”
Additionally, a Finnish Study published in 2015 found that “…the odds of breast cancer increased by 23% among women who used hair dyes compared to those who did not. In women born before 1950, an increase of 28% was noted.”
So, if you could change one thing to lower your risk of breast cancer, why not start with hair color?
In this week’s Tuesday Terrain Talk, I invited the founder of Surya Brasil Henna, (my personal hair color choice) to share her insights on a product that creates beautiful color and nourishes your hair without toxic chemicals.
Listen now and learn the truth about henna products that won’t burn your hair off, covers grey, treat scalp issues, and are easy and affordable.

A diagnosis of breast cancer, whether it’s the first one or a recurrence is mind-numbingly frightening.
If it’s the first time you’ve heard the words, “You have cancer.”
It’s not only frightening but it sends you into a world of language, treatments, and experiences that you have no idea how to understand or manage.
In this episode, I’ll clear up some of the fear and confusion around how to handle a new diagnosis.
This isn’t about treatments, drugs, or supplements, but the mindset shifts that are so important to care for yourself when faced with a life-threatening illness and difficult treatment decisions.
This is the advice I wish someone had given me when I had my first breast cancer diagnosis.
