#327 Breast Cancer and the Shame Cycle - How Beating Yourself Up Impacts Your Health

Better Than Before Breast Cancer with The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach

In today’s episode, we’re talking about a topic that touches many of us but often stays hidden in the shadows: shame.

Shame is this tricky little beast that can sneak up on us, especially when we're navigating the challenging waters of breast cancer recovery.

It’s more than just a fleeting feeling; it can actually have some serious effects on both our mental and physical health.

It can crank up our stress and anxiety levels, making us feel like we’re constantly walking on eggshells. Worse, it can lead us down the path to depression, chip away at our self-esteem, and even make us want to hide away from the world.

On the physical side of things, shame can mess with our brains, leaving us feeling foggy or forgetful. It can put a damper on our immune system, and take a toll on our hearts, our guts, and even how well we sleep at night.

Fortunately, there are ways to overcome shame and its sneaky effects.

Check out today’s episode and see if the insight I share can help you identify and break out of the shame cycle so you can love yourself more and treat yourself better.
