  • S5E6: Bootcamp for survivors- Bridging the survivorship gap

    S5E6: Bootcamp for survivors- Bridging the survivorship gap
    Oct 8 2024
    In this episode, we dive into the often-overlooked emotional journey that begins after cancer treatment ends. Many survivors are left feeling lost, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. We explore cancer as a traumatic event that leaves a lasting impact, and the critical need to take intentional action to close the trauma loop. By reconnecting to ourselves, others, or even a higher power, we can rediscover joy and purpose after a diagnosis. We are thrilled to introduce Jamie, a cancer survivor herself, who will be leading our new Survivorship Bootcamp. Jamie, armed with both personal experience and professional expertise in social work and positive psychology, will guide survivors through a holistic path toward healing—mind, body, and soul. This episode is about validating the confusion and emotional complexity of survivorship and offering tangible steps to move from surviving to thriving. If you're ready to take the next step toward healing and reconnecting with life post-treatment, we encourage you to join our Survivorship Bootcamp waitlist. Don’t wait to find the support you deserve—sign up today at the link provided and take your first step toward reclaiming your joy and purpose. https://faiththroughfire.org/survivorship-bootcamp/ 00:55 Meet Jamie: The Bootcamp Facilitator 04:54 The Emotional Fallout of Cancer Treatment 13:13 Boobs in the News: Groundhog in the Claw Machine 16:41 Adorable Wildlife Encounters 16:56 The Reality of Rabies 17:33 Boobs in the Noose 17:43 Boot Camp vs. Support Groups 19:19 Creating a Healing Culture 20:15 The Importance of Readiness 20:46 Phases of Healing 21:25 Boot Camp Logistics 25:23 Neuroplasticity and New Normals 26:31 Empowerment Through Self-Care 28:16 Who is the Boot Camp For? 29:32 Overcoming Self-Neglect 33:36 The Importance of Mental Health Post-Cancer 35:44 How to Sign Up for the Boot Camp 36:12 Conclusion and Thank You
