Surviving a life-threatening illness or event is just the beginning—what comes after can be even more challenging. In this episode, I open up about the emotional toll survival takes, from dealing with trauma and fear to the loneliness that often follows. I share how finding a community of people who truly understand has been a lifeline in my journey, offering comfort, connection, and the strength to keep moving forward.

In the next few episodes, we’ll dive deeper into what it means to redefine “normal” after survival, how to honour the lives we once had, and the ongoing battle with PTSD and survivor’s guilt. This series is all about navigating the complex reality of life after survival—one step at a time.
