12 Rounds of Radiation, 6 Rounds of chemo, 8 months of treatment and 56 laxatives later, Glynn has finished cancer treatment. In this episode, he reflects on what he did well, some of his 'cancer stats', and what he’d do differently.

And the most surprising thing? Glynn found treatment harder on his mind than on his body. While this won’t be true for everyone’s cancer journey, as a psychologist, Glynn shares his perspective on how to keep the mental-health impacts of treatment to minimum.
