Breast Cancer Heroes Journey

The Day I Realized I Was Already Dead (While Still Breathing)

Episode Summary

Here's something nobody wants to admit... A cancer diagnosis doesn't just threaten your life. It can actually STOP your life while you're still living it. I see it everywhere. Women who get their diagnosis and immediately hit the pause button on everything that matters. "I'll travel when I'm better." "I'll start that business after treatment." "I'll tell people I love them when this is all over." But here's the brutal truth nobody talks about... What if "when this is over" never comes? What if you're wasting the precious time you DO have waiting for some magical moment when you feel "safe" enough to start living again? I spent months in this weird limbo - not dying, but not really living either. Just... existing. Waiting. Putting everything on hold until I could get back to "normal." Then something happened that changed everything. I realized that NONE of us - cancer or no cancer - are guaranteed tomorrow. And I was letting this diagnosis rob me of the life I still had left to live. In this episode, I'm talking about the wake-up call that snapped me out of survival mode and back into LIVING mode. Why your stage doesn't matter. Why your prognosis doesn't define your possibilities. And why the most dangerous thing you can do right now is wait. Because here's what I learned: You're not here to just survive this journey. You're here to leave a mark on this world that only YOU can make. And that starts today. Right now. Exactly where you are. No more waiting. No more "someday." Time to live like your life depends on it.
