10 Year Cancer Survivor & Cancer Doula - Talaya Dendy
I have learned so much about cancer over the last 15 years as the founder of Hello Gorgeous! I have learned about different types of cancer as well as different types of cancer support.
I was so excited to learn more about the term Cancer Doula. I had the opportunity to share my story and the work that we do with Hello Gorgeous! on Talaya's podcast, Navigating Cancer Together.
I was honored when she agreed to share her story with my audience.
Talaya is a ten-year cancer thriver and Cancer Doula. She is also the founder of On the Other Side, an organization dedicated to providing personalized support and resources for people living with cancer. Talaya uses her personal experience with cancer to help cancer patients navigate their cancer journey so that they can focus on healing, take charge of their health, and live a vibrant life. Often, treating cancer is the focus. Therefore, it can leave the patient with care, which is not centered on a patient-centered and holistic approach. Talaya helps to bridge the gap between the emotional and medical sides of cancer.
