Why Survivorship is a Different Kind of Hard

2025/11/03

After you’ve finished breast cancer treatment it’s common to think about how you’ll move forward. You probably think all the hard stuff is behind you and you’ll know exactly what to do now that diagnosis and treatment are in the rearview mirror. You think you’ve armed yourself with information about how to eat well so you can move into that “post-treatment phase” feeling confident. Except. . .no one told you to expect that sneaky, pervasive anxiety you feel about your food. In this episode I explore

2025/10/27

Trusting yourself around food after breast cancer treatment ends feels risky, but only when you second-guess yourself because you think there’s a “right or wrong way” to eat now. Because you don’t trust yourself, you create food rules and highly structured order around meals, snacks, grocery shopping and dining out in order to stop feeling like every food decision IS a matter of life or death. In this final episode of my Four-Part Ending Food Fright series, I share why that’s not the way to navigate

Mental food chatter is often referred to a “food noise”; it’s those persistent, intrusive thoughts about food that can distract you from your daily activities.

What’s “trust” have to do with your breast cancer nutrition? EVERYTHING. When you don’t trust yourself to make the right food decisions or know what’s best to eat, the tendency is to fall apart about your food. . .literally. I talk about trusting yourself around food A LOT, and in this second of my four-part series for October, I dig in to where trust comes into play around the idea that you’re doing your food wrong.

Just because you’re “done” with treatment, it doesn’t mean you’re “done” with the fear, anxiety and uncertainty you experience during ALL the months of the year - including OCTOBER. This is where food comes into the equation; any trepidation you feel about not eating the “right” food is heightened this month, because EVERYTHING about breast cancer is heightened this month - and it’s unsettling. That’s why for the entire month of October I’m doing a four-part “Ending Food Fright” series to help you

Walking through the world in pink shoes is the way I describe how we, women who’ve had (or have) breast cancer, instantly connect with one another’s experience.

Why You Need a "Forever" Eating Plan

2025/09/15

It’s true, women in the breast cancer community are curious about strict, rule-based eating plans promising to provide optimal treatment outcomes or prevent recurrence. Sadly, rather than deliver on what they promise, these diets create stress, anxiety, and confusion around food. The outcome? Diet abandonment, followed by guilt, shame and feeling like a failure. Not what you want from an eating plan, eh? In this episode, I explain why a “forever” eating plan, one that’s flexible, nourishing, and

How often have you said this about your post-treatment diet, “I was doing so well, and then everything fell apart.”? If you’ve said it even once, this episode is for you. Today I’m talking about the exhausting pattern so many hormone receptor-positive breast cancer survivors fall into: eating super ‘clean,’ then slipping, then swinging back to strict rules out of fear, guilt, or shame. This isn’t a willpower issue, it’s a trauma-driven response to food and it’s incredibly common after hormone
