When we talk about breast cancer and sexual abuse, we tend to focus on the incident or the diagnosis and we don't focus on the person - the person they are and the person they become after the experience. How does the incident or diagnosis impact their intimate relationships? How do they learn to trust again, love again let alone date again? This weeks guest, Ronnie Joy Krasner, is no stranger to Let's Coach with Mark and Carolyn. Known as the Midlife Dating Coach, she  recently shared her story of sexual abuse publicly for the first time in the book "Coming Out of Hiding and Shine".  The book was a year long process led by international best selling author Rebecca Hall Gruyter, and also includes the stories of over 30 powerful and inspirational authors. During the process of writing the book, Ronnie Joy was diagnosed with breast cancer.  As she walked through the process of treating and recovering from breast cancer AND sharing her story of sexual abuse, she discovered a whole new aspect to the dating  world. Now, not only does she teach her clients how to successfully get back into the dating wild, she also assist them with dating after diagnosis and sexual abuse. I invite you to tune in as we discuss an often overlooked and avoided topic, Love, Intimacy, Breast Cancer and Sexual Assault, and be inspired to Come Out of Hiding and Shine...
