I am excited to share with you a significant milestone in my life—a journey of courage, self-discovery, and resilience.

For a long time, I kept a part of my life hidden, struggling with the weight of stigma and judgment. But now, I feel empowered to step forward and share my story with all of you.

Late last year, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. The news came as a shock, and I found myself grappling with overwhelming emotions and uncertainty. Amidst the fear and confusion, I couldn’t help but wonder whether this health challenge would hinder my ability to be a competitive consultant. I questioned how my peers, clients, and the professional world would perceive me with this added aspect of my life.

I chose to keep my battle private, not wanting to expose myself to potential biases or limitations. But as time went on and I embarked on a journey of healing and recovery, I realised that this silence perpetuated shame and stigma not only for myself but for countless other women facing their own personal crises.

Now, with my health under control and feeling physically stronger than ever, I refuse to let any woman bear the burden of shame due to a personal crisis. And so, with a heart full of determination and purpose, I am thrilled to announce the release of my book, “She. Has Breast Cancer”

Understanding Crisis Management in Life:

We all invest significant effort in crisis management and planning in our professional lives, but how do we navigate personal crises? The truth is, personal crises can shake the very foundation of a woman’s life, impacting all that she juggles, often catching her by surprise. I believe it’s time for us to see ourselves as the CEOs of our own lives and manage personal crises with the same strategic approach we apply in business.

A Guiding Light in the Darkness:

In “She has breast cancer,” I share my own journey through breast cancer and how I turned to my training and expertise to regain control of my life. I applied a framework familiar to me in my professional work to tackle uncertainty, understand the impact on my identity, and ultimately reach a place of strength and resilience.

The book is more than just a personal story; it’s a guidebook for anyone navigating a crisis. Whether it’s breast cancer, another health challenge, or any significant life upheaval, the principles of crisis management strategy can be universally applied to help make the situation seem less daunting. By understanding what’s happening and why we feel the way we do, we can trust the process and take one step at a time, knowing we have the tools to face the storm.

Empowerment and Support for Women:

Breast cancer diagnosis can be an overwhelming and distressing experience, and women facing this challenge need all the support and empowerment they can get. Unfortunately, not all women receive the support they need to navigate their crises, forcing them to learn how to help themselves. My book aims to fill this gap by providing practical guidance and tools for reframing negative messages, building resilience, and taking control of their well-being.

Cancer: A New Perspective:

In recent years, the landscape of cancer, especially breast cancer, has undergone a remarkable transformation. Advancements in medical treatments, research, and support have reshaped the way we perceive this challenging journey. Many women now approach breast cancer as they would any other chronic inflammatory illness, rather than being daunted by the term “cancer.”

With breakthrough treatments and a greater understanding of the disease, the cancer community has witnessed tremendous progress. Many women are standing strong as living testaments to the power of modern medicine and the unwavering human spirit.

Shifting Paradigms:

Empowerment and Education

As we progress towards a new era of cancer management, it becomes crucial for women to be equipped with accurate information and empowered with knowledge. Education is key to breaking down the barriers of fear and stigma surrounding cancer.

In my book, “She has breast” cancer I delve into this shifting paradigm and how empowering oneself with knowledge can fundamentally change the cancer experience. By understanding the latest advancements in treatments, recognising the importance of early detection, and proactively managing one’s health, women can take charge of their journey with newfound strength and confidence.

Join Me in This Journey:

I invite you all to join me in this transformative journey through crisis management. Whether you are personally facing a crisis or wish to support others in their struggle, “S”he has breast cancer offers valuable insights and guidance. It is my hope that through the power of this book, we can empower women to face any crisis with confidence, strength, and hope.
