"I'm sorry." I said it to my husband when I told him about my diagnosis. I said it to my mother when she started crying. I said it to my kids when I had to explain why mommy was sick. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Like my cancer was somehow MY fault. Like I had personally chosen to ruin everyone's life. And here's the twisted part - I couldn't stop apologizing. Even when my husband begged me to stop. Even when my mom got angry and told me I had nothing to be sorry for. The words just kept coming out. But why? Why do we do this to ourselves when we're already fighting for our lives? In this episode, I'm digging into the psychology behind this weird, self-destructive habit that almost EVERY woman with breast cancer falls into. The deep-rooted beliefs that make us feel responsible for everyone else's pain. The guilt that eats us alive when we should be focusing on healing. And the moment I realized that apologizing for my cancer was actually making everyone around me feel worse, not better. Because here's what I discovered: When you apologize for something that isn't your fault, you're not being considerate. You're being destructive. You're teaching the people who love you that your life is something to be sorry about. And that's the last message you want to send when you need their strength the most. Time to stop apologizing for surviving.
