Ep 025 - Dealing with Cancer Suburban Folk

Our guest is Renee A. Exelbert, Ph.D., CFT, a licensed psychologist and certified elite personal trainer.  She was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 37 shortly after discovering she was pregnant.  She tells her powerful story about dealing with the diagnosis, treatment and life.  Our discussion takes us through the emotions encountered, family communication, and healthcare provider interactions.  Dr. Exelbert has turned her experience into a business that treats the mental and physical challenges of dealing with cancer and is an inspiration for those dealing with the disease.  Her first book Chemo Muscles: Lessons Learned from Being a Psycho-Oncologist and Cancer Patient will debut on February 25, 2020.
