Turning a Negative to a Positive

Welcome to episode 11 of the Phoenix Wellness Coaching podcast exploring women's life choices through the real stories of real women. In this episode we interview Gayle, an inspiring American woman who has faced, and overcome, adversity in her life and has turned those negative experiences into positives for both herself and those around her. Gayle has a great story to tell and again we explore how our experiences can build our resilience, but more importantly, how we can use them to help those around us. Gayle was diagnosed with breast cancer in the early 1990s, when the conversation and treatment of cancer was very different to how it is now. We talk to Gayle about her experiences of undergoing a double mastectomy and how that experience drove her to want to help other women going through the same experience. This is an open, honest and frank conversation with lots of emotion around Gayle's experience, but a great example of how she wouldn't let this break her and how she turned this to a positive and has helped 1000s of other women facing breast cancer.
