Customer Reviews
Completely fascinating. Utterly vital.
What makes this an invaluable podcast is its focus on the everyday aspects of living and through cancer. Each episode focuses on a unique aspect of our physical, psychological and emotional selves, offering expert-driven strategy for rediscovering (and sometimes redefining) how we see ourselves. Here these five episodes shine a light on finding our paths back to “normal” or simply understanding what paths are available in the first place.
Completely fascinating. Utterly vital. Really hoping for more episodes. Don’t stop at five.
Emotional wellness
Really well done. So much practical wisdom from experts and people who have cancer!
Empowerment is very personal
This podcast is beautiful. Real stories by real people with real issues and it’s filled with hope. No preaching, no shaming, just sharing experiences so that others can find strength to feel a little semblance of self while they’re dealing with cancer and all the changes that come with it. Way to go Walgreens for diving into this tough area with grace and genuine support.
