#88 Resilience, Raw Emotions, and Recharging after a cancer diagnosis.

Hey Hey! 

In this week's episode of Just For Today, I, Steph Grainger, therapeutic mentor, return after a brief hiatus to share the emotional and mental challenges I've faced recently. With raw honesty, I discuss my father's lung cancer diagnosis and the impact it has had on my life, alongside the lingering effects of my son's battle with testicular cancer.

I delve into the absolute necessity of allowing ourselves to feel emotions deeply, but also and equally, the importance of pulling ourselves out of the emotional spiral. I recount the invaluable support from my close circle, whose timely advice helped me regain my footing and get back into the driving seat.

This episode is my personal, heartfelt, exploration of resilience, the power of community, and the importance of taking breaks to recharge. 

I also share the exciting news of an upcoming episode featuring Lauren, where we will reunite as "Two Old Birds" for a special one-off podcast. Plus, I offer words of encouragement and practical advice for parents navigating the school holidays, emphasising the importance of self-care and the simplicity of creating memorable moments with your children.
