This week's letter went out on a Tuesday, and that's the whole point. In the first of my Six Fundamentals of Active Healing series, I get honest about the difference between passive recovery and active healing, and why time and space are the place everything else begins.

My client asked her nurse about a painful condition. The nurse, also a breast cancer survivor, told her to be happy to be alive and go watch some YouTube videos. Here’s what I have to say about that.

I opened an email from my former cancer center expecting real survivorship support. What I found instead, and what I wish it had said, is the subject of this week's letter.

Last week ABMP published a full feature article about my work — and asked me the question I get asked more than any other: what does self-care actually mean after breast cancer? Here's what I told them, and what it has to do with something I've been building for you.

I feel braver than ever after deciding to bear my scars — literally — inside of As You Are Now: A Breast Cancer Self-Care Program for Real Life. This week’s email is all about realizing that brave is not a platitude in cancer land when you see it for what it really means.

My foot recovered from the Gladiator Walk incident — but what stuck with me wasn't the ankle. It was how un-scared I was. And how much I want that for you too. I'm building something, and before I go any further, I need to know where you are.
