The Sunday Self-Care Chronicles - Newsletter Archives

Welcome to the Sunday Self-Care Chronicles — my weekly love note to breast cancer patients, survivors, caregivers, and anyone learning to care for their body (and heart) after diagnosis.

Each Sunday, I share a mix of personal reflections, practical tools, and honest education rooted in both professional experience and lived survivorship. These aren’t fluffy wellness tips — they’re real-world, body-focused strategies to help you feel more informed, more supported, and more like yourself again.

You can browse by category, revisit your favorites, or start wherever your nervous system says “yes.”

Let’s make this less scary together — one Sunday at a time.
