After that diagnosis, how many times have you said... I just want my old life back! We never asked for this diagnosis to happen. And then we don’t talk enough about what it’s like to grieve our former lives. To grieve that fabulous person we used to be. 

This week is my birthday and breast cancer survivorversary. It’s always a time of reflection for me as I begin another trip around the sun. That reflection always includes my former life and there’s a lot of yearning for the past, and for my past self.

On today’s episode, we are going to answer the question… what IS the quickest way to get your old life back after a diagnosis derails your plans?

The answer is powerful, it involves a broken reflector of an old car, and I think it’s going to surprise you. 

Together, we will unpack:

• Why it's more important to move forward instead of dwelling on the past.
• How you can take a step back and evaluate your life from a neutral perspective so that you can gain better clarity.
• When you need to ask yourself hard questions and how you can be curious about the answers.
• Holly shares a story of a hit and run that changed her life forever.
• When it's time to grieve the loss of your former life and when it's time to move on.
