This podcast hosts conversations with cancer patients, survivors and medical professionals to learn about treatments available for women with a cancer diagnosis.  I’m Dani Binnington, after breast cancer, surgery to remove my ovaries led me to early menopause, I had no idea what my treatment options were and who in my medical team could help me figure out what to do about my symptoms. I felt alone and unsupported. It took me so long to discover I had lots of options too. If only I’d known sooner! Everything I wish I’d known back then is inside these conversations - so you can make the right choices now.  These episodes are a good place to start: 1. Rethinking Tamoxifen & Aromatase Inhibitors  2. Why I decided to take HRT after an oestrogen driven cancer 2.

Ep 133 - Gratitude is Powerful, But the Journey is Complex

In this empowering episode, I I want to dive into the reality that, while feeling “lucky to be alive” is a powerful sentiment, it doesn’t always capture the whole story.  Join me as I explore how these feelings of gratitude sometimes make it harder to ask for help, share personal struggles, or seek the support needed for true healing.  So many of you amazing survivors I speak to, myself included, face unanticipated challenges - like the added complexity of menopause - and many are out there feeling alone and looking for holistic support. We'll uncover ways to balance gratitude with advocacy for your health, find trustworthy resources when medical guidance is lacking, and build a community that truly understands.

This is a fascinating conversation and I urge you to listen to it. Do you snore? Do you sleep with your mouth open?

She shares her personal journey from being a GP to becoming a functional breathing expert after experiencing sleep issues related to her breathing patterns.
