This is your friendly reminder to confront that fear and begin sharing your message & solutions of what your service can do for others. 🗣️ I had a client in my content mentorship group who was a coach that helped women regain strength and confidence after battling cancer. 🖤 She was also a 2x survivor but, her fear of looking crazy was holding her back. I have an aunt that's beat 4 stage cancer also, so it hits home deep for me with this. We did these three things with her in depth: ✍️ We found out where the fear was stemming from. ✍️ We encouraged her through exercises to be herself ✍️ We gave her tips to visualize helping and not helping her ideal clients. Did it work? Yes! Was it easy? No! Was it worth it? YES! What do you feel is holding you back from really sharing your message? #instagramcontenttips #instagramcontenthacks #coachdrewcost #contentcreation #marketingtips #headachelesscontent #contenttips

This is an important one to read! Many of us fear saying the wrong thing to someone fighting the dreaded big C - Cancer. You know you want to show your support and you know that saying something is better than saying nothing, but it’s really easy to say the wrong thing; although, as Sharron Moffatt (MHFA®/ACSM) has taught me, it’s not necessarily about right or wrong, it’s about educating ourselves to be better with it. This post has educated me today, so I wanted to share it with you too. Have you fallen foul of this? #CancerAwareness #Wellbeing #MentalHealth

Surviving cancer can be tough but having conversations about it need not be. Some really good ideas here to shift and reframe questions to support those going through treatment. It has helpful conversations about what you can say to have empathy and connection to those with a cancer diagnosis. The last slide also contains the very important reminder to get your screenings as early detection can be a lifesaver. I'm 5 years out as a breast cancer survivor so I know whereof I speak. All of this is #goodadvice - and I am happy to share it far and wide.

I teach doctors, nurses, and allied health professionals English for Healthcare, with a focus on the OET.
An insightful and fun post on how to talk to someone with cancer. These points stood out to me: - Stay open to someone's story - Be curious about it, rather than offer a platitude. - Offering specific help - Just be present (and normal) rather than making them assign you a task. It is worth mentioning that if you are supporting or know someone who is going through cancer then this will impact you too and those feelings need to be taken care of. In the OET, some role plays are between a relative or carer and the healthcare professional. This highlights the importance of 'next of kin' relationships. In contrast, there is no roleplay about talking with friends of a sick person. This absence is for good reasons, namely confidentiality and privacy. Of course, people can nominate medical power of attorney (POA) to friends and loved ones so they can be part of these conversations, but this is not really a common practice. Author and podcaster, Dan Savage, notes that there are two kinds of closeness: 'the biological family and the logical family'. I agree with Dan especially after the experience of losing a close friend to cancer while I lived in Japan. We need to find healthy ways to help living with cancer and other illnesses. Thank you Sharron Moffatt (MHFA®/ACSM) for pointing us in the right direction.

With June being National Cancer Survivors Awareness month, I figured I'd share a bit about my story and how it relates to my business. I became a late-stage cancer survivor on 10/15/2010, which is where I got my company’s name: Ten Fifteen Communications. While having cancer was a setback, it has genuinely made me a stronger, more well-rounded person and without it I wouldn’t be who I am today. I learned lessons on tenacity, perseverance, and how precious life really is. These are lessons I try to implement in my business as I strive to help companies and individuals tell their stories and represent themselves well online. #nationalcancersurvivorsmonth #cancersurvivors #tenacity #perseverance

Reading messages from those sharing their experiences with Inflammatory Breast Cancer can be deeply moving. One woman poignantly shared that her tomorrows are getting shorter. It's crucial to listen when someone opens up about their fears and realities. Take a moment to let them express themselves fully. Tip for dealing with grief: Allow space for honest conversations. When a loved one shares difficult news, resist the urge to immediately reassure. Instead, listen, acknowledge their feelings, and provide the support they need. This can be incredibly comforting and validating for them. How have you supported someone through their journey? Share your experiences and let's support each other. #inflammatorybreastcancer #support

Cancer has triggered numerous changes in my personal and business life. Upon reflection, it may be that the cancer (and later COVID) were big flags that I had to learn how to do my work more virtually. I'm making progress, but will still ask to bear with me. #lifecoach #executivecoaching #leadershipdevelopment
