32. Facing the Tiger. Meet “’Professor Suzanne Chambers”, Psychologist & Author

 

Professor Suzanne Chambers is a nurse, onco-psychologist, author, and so much more. 

------

 

For this episode, we talk with Suzanne Chambers, the author of the amazing, must-read ‘’Facing the Tiger’. 

 

Suzanne talks about how and why she wrote her book, the strength of mindfulness and why it’s not a policy for everyone, Masculinity in Chronic Disease Inventory (MCDI), individuality, and a lot more topics geared to helping patients with their journey. 

 

We particularly love her thoughts on seeking a second opinion and why you should feel confident in doing so. 

 

Have a listen and enjoy the conversation with the woman who started the advocacy for cancer patient support. She’ll share some tips to use (which you may know but might have forgotten) when anxiety creeps in. 

 

This episode also reminds us of the motto that ‘everyone is different and unique’.
