    Cancer at 20-Something

    Send us a text In today’s episode, I sit down with Peter Laneas to explore a deeply personal and incredibly powerful story, what it really feels like to face cancer as a young adult, and how that experience shaped the life he’s living today. Peter opens up about the moment everything changed, the emotional and physical challenges that followed, and the often-overlooked realities of navigating cancer during a time of life when most people are building careers, relationships, and dreams for the future. This episode isn’t just about hardship, it’s about transformation. Peter shares how he reclaimed control after treatment, shifting from survivor to advocate, using his story to raise awareness and create community for others walking a similar path. His honesty, insight, and strength offer a message that every listener can carry with them: ✨ Your story doesn’t end with diagnosis. ✨ Your voice matters. ✨ You can rise, rebuild, and even thrive. We also dive into the meaningful work Peter is doing today to support people living with cancer from advocacy initiatives to community leadership and peer support. Whether you’re living with cancer, love someone who is, or want to better understand the young adult survivor experience, this episode will leave you inspired, informed, and reminded of the power of turning pain into purpose. 🎧 Listen to the Episode You can find this conversation on: Apple PodcastsSpotifyOr wherever you listen to podcastsIf this episode resonates with you, I would love for you to share it with someone who may need support or encouragement today.

    Survivor's Guilt

    Send us a text Cancer survivorship is often celebrated as a victory and it is. But, many cancer survivors know that living beyond diagnosis brings more than relief. It can also carry a quiet, heavy burden known as survivor’s guilt. This is the hidden side of life after cancer that doesn’t always get talked about. You may find yourself asking: Why did I survive when others didn’t?How do I celebrate my healing when someone else’s story ended differently?Do I even deserve this second chance?These questions are painful, but they are also deeply human. This week on the Living to Thrive with Cancer podcast, I’m diving deeper into this tender subject in my new episode: Survivor’s Guilt. I’ll share insights and practices to help you move from guilt toward meaning, healing, and joy.
