Not Today Cancer

Different Coping Styles After a Cancer Diagnosis: Marriage, Mindset & Real Talk


Listen Later

What happens when two people face cancer together… with completely opposite coping styles? In today's episode, Jen and Darren get honest (and a little hilarious) about how they navigated breast cancer and brain cancer — one through research and planning, the other through humor and distraction.

You'll hear: ✨ How each of us reacted in those first terrifying days ✨ The strengths AND pitfalls of our styles ✨ Why there is no one "right" way to deal with trauma

We hope this conversation reminds you that love doesn't require matching emotions — just mutual respect and a willingness to show up, even when fear shows up differently.

Because if there's one thing we've learned, it's this: There is no perfect way to cope with cancer… there's only your way. 💗
