Stepping into the medical system after a breast cancer diagnosis is like a baby taking its first breath outside the womb.

It’s a shocking, unfamiliar environment that most of us have no idea what we’ll be expected to navigate.

Yet we also expect that our oncologist will take care of everything we need.

In my own breast cancer experience I found that this expectation led to a tremendous amount of anger and frustration.

At times I thought I just got stuck with a bad doctor. Then I started coaching other women and heard the same story and saw the same anger over and over.

In this episode, I’ll offer you a perspective on the standard of care that can lead you to having a much more empowered, supportive experience and relieve you of the long-term suffering that anger and resentment add to an already difficult experience.
