From the Podcast Vault: The Our MBC Life Book Club
A few weeks ago we published an interview with Sarah Mandel, clinical psychologist and author, whose memoir Little Earthquakes was recently published Harper House. We hope you had a chance to listen to this interview and read her memoir,
What you might not remember that Sarah is by no means the first author we have had the pleasure to have as a guest of our podcast.
In this month’s edition of 'The Vault', we’ve decided to revisit three excellent episodes with author interviews which we thought listeners might have missed. Adiba Barney talks about her early and late-stage breast cancer, Dr. Pauline Boss talks with the late Lisa Laudico, and members of the LGBTQ2S+ Community living with breast cancer.
Season 1 Episode 21
Natalia Green spoke with the inspiring badass, MBC advocate, and author Adiba Barney. Adiba’s life has been worthy of a book for a while and we are grateful she has written: “When Life Hands You Cactuses, Make Margaritas”. Hear how Adiba navigated two early-stage breast cancer diagnosis at age 27 and then 30, then her MBC diagnosis at age 37. She talks about her 15-year quest to become a mother and her passion for “living life like there is no tomorrow and like [she’s] gonna live forever.”
Season 2 Episode 17
This episode sheds light on the issues facing members of the LGBTQ2S+ community living with breast cancer and on social determinants of health and health inequities. In this episode Senior Producer Natalia Green speaks with Kimiko Tobimatsu, Canadian employment and human rights lawyer and author of graphic memoir Kimiko Does Cancer
Season 4 Episode 3
In this episode our founder Lisa Laudico speaks with leading social scientist, family therapist, professor, and writer Dr. Pauline Boss about all of her research and her latest book, The Myth of Closure: Ambiguous Loss in a Time of Pandemic & Change. Dr. Boss has extended the lens of her groundbreaking research to the world we live in today. This is another episode that has something for everyone – not just those of us living with MBC or a terminal diagnosis.
