A new course now available on Insight Timer
Over the years, I’ve met many people whose lives were suddenly divided into “before” and “after” a cancer diagnosis. The ground shifts, the future feels uncertain, and even ordinary moments can become charged with fear, hope, and everything in between. Out of listening to these stories—and my own encounters with illness and vulnerability—this new offering was born.
I’ve created a guided course on Insight Timer called **The Empowered Patient: A Mindfulness Companion For Your Cancer Journey**. It’s designed for people living with cancer, those in treatment or recovery, and the loved ones who walk beside them. The course doesn’t try to fix or bypass the reality of illness. Instead, it offers a way to meet each moment—with its pain, its beauty, and its complexity—with more steadiness and compassion.
Across the modules, we explore how mindfulness can support you through diagnosis, treatment, waiting, and healing. We work with fear and uncertainty, with the body’s changing sensations, with difficult emotions, and with the stories the mind tells about what is happening. Each session includes gentle guidance, practical tools, and space to simply breathe and be as you are.
My hope is that this course feels like a companion: something you can return to when you’re scared, exhausted, or overwhelmed, and also when you’re quietly hopeful or deeply grateful. You don’t have to be “positive” all the time. You don’t have to be brave every moment. You only have to be honest—and mindfulness can hold that honesty with kindness.

If you or someone you love is living with cancer, I offer this course as a small, steady support along the way.
May you be held. May you be empowered. May you be at peace in each moment, just as it is.
