Episode 274: Just a Tuesday
<p>What do we actually want when we go into a scan? When we make the hard choices about treatment and energy and how we spend ourselves? We want a Tuesday. An ordinary, unremarkable, nothing-special day when we feel fine, go to work, eat dinner, and nothing interrupts it.</p><p>In this episode Heather talks about why the Tuesday is the whole thing — not the milestones, not the moments that take your breath away, but the ordinary days stacked one on top of the other where life actually happens. She talks about what MBC gives you in terms of perspective, how to put the fear down long enough to actually be in the day, and how to hold the grief for the life you thought you would have alongside the life you actually have.</p><p>This one is a reminder as much as it is an episode. Look up.</p><p>Heather was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer at 26 and has now been living with the disease for more than 25 years. Through this podcast she shares perspective, lived experience, and conversations that help people navigate life with metastatic cancer.</p><p>Sensational Survivor Series — apply at: <a href="https://forms.gle/6H9K7NXMAeN1QEv87">https://forms.gle/6H9K7NXMAeN1QEv87</a></p><p>Digital Guides — <a href="https://shop.heatherjose.com/all-guides/">https://shop.heatherjose.com/all-guides/</a></p><p>Listener Questions — submit at: <a href="https://heatherjose.com">https://heatherjose.com</a></p><p>Connect with Heather:Instagram: <a href="https://instagram.com/heatherbjose">https://instagram.com/heatherbjose</a>Website: <a href="https://heatherjose.com">https://heatherjose.com</a></p><p>Intro/outro music by Heather's son Ty — Instagram: <a href="https://instagram.com/tyjosee">https://instagram.com/tyjosee</a></p><p><br></p>
