63: When a Loved One Has Cancer with Catherine Weis

The Progress Project - A podcast by Laura Farr & Kristin Brown

Today’s episode is a conversation between Laura Farr and Catherine Weis about what to do when someone you love is diagnosed with cancer.

Both women have the unique experience of having had cancer themselves and having their fathers both pass away from cancer so they know from experience what to say, what NOT to say, and how to help!

We chat about:

  • Practical and meaningful ways you can help someone who has cancer
  • How to use your own talents and abilities to serve them
  • The best gifts cancer patients find meaningful
  • What NOT to say or do to someone going through cancer
  • What you need to do to take care of yourself so you can serve the best you can
