CREATING LIGHT IN MIDLIFE DARKNESS
Show Notes
Are you or a loved one currently going through a midlife “sickness” diagnosis or the weight of the mental and physical changes of menopause? Then this episode might be able to help shed some light on a sometimes seemingly dark path.
Join me, Dr. Sarah Milken, in an open and honest conversation called, “Creating Light In Midlife Darkness.” My guest, Jen Delvaux, is a podcaster, author, health & fitness coach and cancer “thriver” and we discuss taking cancer by the horns, learning and growing from it. In this episode, we learn about Jen and her husband’s journey with their individual cancer diagnoses. Turning the “storm” into “silver lining” life moments & changes. Jen walks us through the changes she has had to make in her everyday life for recurring cancer prevention & midlife health. We also go deep into the difficult and meaningful conversations with her husband regarding the end of life, and her changed mindset all due to their diagnoses.
Some highlights:
There is more than just medicine
How to confront a loved one or friend who has been diagnosed with cancer
Meaningful marriage cancer conversations
You have to figure out who you are after your diagnosis
Enjoy the little things in life, don’t focus on the negative
Fear is its own form of cancer
It's all about the mindset
