Our Contributing Expert, Robyn Towt, is a breast cancer survivor and the co-founder of Global Patient Advocacy Coalition. Soon after she had a bilateral mastectomy with immediate reconstruction, she fell ill. She was fortunate that she didn’t have to do chemo or radiation, so it was easy to narrow down what was making her sick—it was the implants! Robyn is a now a survivor of “breast implant illness,” and she’s become a patient advocate working the implant manufacturers, our government, and the medical provider community to ensure proper safeguards are in place to ensure informed consent. Her story is powerful and important.

Friends, I am so very excited to bring you this training about “Mindful Eating.” Our Contributing Expert Dawn Hopkins is, among other things, a Licensed Am I Hungry? Mindful Eating Facilitator. “Mindful eating”? What the heck is THAT? From the Am I Hungry? website: You were born with a natural, instinctive relationship with food. As a young child, you knew when you were hungry and when you were full. You ate what you loved without guilt. And when you were done eating, food was no longer your focus. You turned your attention to playing, exploring, and growing while your body used the fuel for energy. Along the way, you probably picked up messages about food and your body from family, friends, healthcare, and the media. For example, you were told that certain foods are “bad,” and when you eat them, you are “bad” too. Instead of play, exercise became punishment for eating or for earning the right to eat. Your body was somehow wrong, creating an intense longing to change it to earn acceptance and approval. This set you up for a life-long pattern we call the eat-repent-repeat cycle. It’s time to heal your relationship with food. When you stop obsessing about food and your body and heal your relationship with food, you free your energy to live the big, vibrant life you crave! Dawn is a world-class “trainer of trainers” in the yoga community. But she’s also passionate about the way the Am I Hungry? Program helped her change her relationship with food and heal deep-seated issues from an eating disorder. As a breast cancer survivor herself, she wants to bring what she’s learned to our community! Please join us—we’re waiting for you!

When Marci Greenberg Cox was diagnosed with breast cancer, her daughters were ages 5 and 1. How do you explains a breast cancer diagnosis to children? This is a struggle every young mommy faces when they’re diagnosed. Struggle no more! Marci is the author of Mommy Has a Boo-Boo: Explaining Breast Cancer to Children. The book helps kids ages 3-9 learn what their Mommy is going through. The book explains that you can't see the boo-boo and tells the kids what it is called: cancer. It goes through the timeline of what one mommy went through — from having surgery and losing her breasts, to having to go through chemotherapy and losing her hair. Mommy may look different, and it will take time for Mommy to heal — but in the end, she will get better! In our interview, Marci discusses her other books, including The Breast Cancer GPS, Breast Cancer Word Search, Courage, Hope & Strength, A Warrior’s Journey and more! Marci has self-published eight books in the last two years and is currently writing #9! As we discussed in our podcast, she’s also helping new writers get started through her Pad-to-Publishing service. Marci, you’re doing GREAT things!

More and more success stories are being told in our private Sex After Breast Cancer support group! Our women are learning about solutions that are available to them to treat painful intercourse and lack of libido from our incredible group of Contributing Experts. Today’s podcast features one of our women and a newlywed, Erin, who was struggling with both painful intercourse and lack of libido early in her marriage. Through the encouragement of the women in our support group and the education she was able to get through our team of Contributing Experts, Erin felt empowered to talk to her providers about potential solutions to her issues. As she tried options along the way (including vaginal laser treatment and pelvic floor therapy), her gynecologist suggested that Erin see a different gynecologist who worked more often with women who take hormone blockers. Erin tells the story of how that new gyny was able to specifically identify why intercourse was painful and how just a tiny bit of topical hormone cream applied a couple of times a week restored her tissue and took away her pain quickly! And on the libido front, it was recommended that Erin try using a prescription medication Addyi that works in pre-menopausal women to treat decreased sexual desire. Her gyny said 70% of the women she prescribes it to had great results, and Erin was one of those. Although her gyny said it would take three months to have results, Erin experienced increase desire in the first month! (Note that there is one other prescription medication given by injection for pre-menopausal women who have low sexual desire called Vyleesi). As it is with all of us, friends, painful intercourse and lack of libido is most likely caused by a combination of medical conditions that can be treated. Take Erin’s advice and ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF with your providers to find the answers you need. THERE IS HOPE.

We are so grateful that the AMAZING Carla Mannes is part of our Contributing Expert team! Carla is a Holistic Therapist and Certified Grief Facilitator, as well as a breast cancer survivor. She knows what all of us go through after being diagnosed with breast cancer. Carla’s wisdom about the topics of grief and loss is so important to soak up, friend. We often put our own grief and loss aside because of life’s pressing issues. But ignoring these critical emotions can create trouble down the road. I hope you’ll take the time to learn from Carla’s experience.

It takes courage to create healthy boundaries. Nothing is truly “dangerous” right now except getting your feelings hurt or being disappointed. Other topics:

Where in the world did “cancel culture” come from? It causes us to not feel “safe” in even the simplest of conversations. And safety allows you to show your true self. Today’s society does not at all seem “safe,” right? Many people feel as if they’re walking on eggshells. In this episode of For Such A Time As This—Biblical Hope in a World Gone Mad, Cinthia Hiett and I talk about the phenomenon of cancel culture.

Pink Sister Lesley Rabb’s social media post about firing her oncologist really got my attention. Too often we stay with a doctor that we don’t communicate well with, that doesn’t give us the time we need, that doesn’t seem to “hear” us. We do that for various reasons. We’ve been taught to “respect” authority, and that might make us reluctant to speak up and be our own advocates with a medical professional. We might worry about if changing doctors will disrupt our treatment and, ultimately, our health. We might worry about hurting the doctor’s feelings. We might just be too dang worn out to do the work it will take to find a new doctor. Lesley’s cautionary tale explains why having a medical team that communicates well with you, that “hears” you, that gives you the time necessary to make sure you know what is being recommended is CRITICAL to your health. Thank you, Lesley, for telling your story. My guess is that it will encourage other women to stand up for themselves and make a change. BYE, FELICIA!

It almost seems upside down in so many ways. What we believed to be true now isn't? And what we never imagined to be true is? What is happening? As Christians, our foundation is Jesus. But for many believers, our foundation might feel a bit wobbly these days. Have you ever stopped to think about why you are here, where you are, right now? God did not make a mistake in having you live on this planet "for such a time as this." He wanted YOU here. For His purposes. Acts 17:26 says, "From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands." Friend, God deliberately placed you right here, right now, for His purposes. God planted an idea in my heart to encourage and equip my believing friends to reflect Christ in their sphere of influence in this "world gone mad." So I asked my friend and life coach Cinthia Hiett to sit down for some timely conversation about our crazy world today, We're calling this a "limited series" of podcasts, but the truth is that we will go where God leads. We're all in this adventure together! Our conversations will be wide ranging. From attacks on identity to cancel culture, from "porn literacy" in schools to the destruction of the family, we'll be tackling the tough topics and looking at them through a biblical lens. Our prayer is that you will be strengthened and empowered to do all that God has for you. In this crazy world, those who don't know Christ are looking for a lifeline, friend.
