This week I spoke to Rachael Griffin. Racheal is a breast cancer survivor of 11 years, and now a passionate advocate. She works in R and D in the pharmaceutical industry and is trying to invoke change, and give patients a voice from inside the industry.
She also is working as a volunteer with NICE helping review and re-write their breast cancer guidelines. A proud mum to an amazing 6 year old called Elliot and lives with her partner Marc and 13 year old cat Bobby.
What you’ll hear about:
- Building resilience after grief
- Being willing to change your plans
- Developing mental gymnastics
- Finding those things that spark joy
- The amazing wonder of your body
- Know me not my cancer
- Understanding everyone’s journey and needs are different
