Language of Love with Dr. Laura Berman

Finding Balance in the Wake of Cancer


Listen Later

In this Language of Love Session, I have the privilege of reconnecting with Victoria, a courageous soul navigating the turbulent waters of her relationship after her partner's cancer diagnosis. Her story is one of love, resilience, and the quest for balance amidst life's unexpected challenges. 


Victoria's experience is a reminder of how illness can transform not only the life of the person diagnosed but also that of their partner. She bravely shares her frustrations about feeling lost in the role of a caretaker, a sentiment that many can relate to. The balance between supporting a loved one and maintaining one's sense of self is delicate and often difficult to achieve.


Here's a sneak peek of what we discuss:

  • Victoria's struggles in her relationship after her partner's cancer diagnosis and treatment
  • The intricate balance of healing and growth within a relationship affected by illness
  • The complexities of confronting uncertainty and the allure of looking for answers externally
  • The importance of open communication and seeking professional help

  • Remember that relationships are a dance of give and take, especially in times of crisis. It's through our challenges that we often find our greatest strengths and learn the most about ourselves and our partners.
