Cancer Cured Me
Cancer Cured Me
Podcast Description
This is NOT a podcast about cancer. It’s actually more of a celebration of life and a journey of happiness, a voyage built on a simple but powerful truth: That YOU hold ALL the cards to achieve your dreams and to live your very best life. A few years ago, I received my cancer diagnosis and it felt like my world had caved in. But my journey through treatment and recovery also forced me to recognise many uncomfortable truths about my life. I’d neglected myself. I’d pushed down trauma and worried about everything and everyone all the time. Getting ill made me realise I had to stop sweating the small stuff and make lasting changes for the better. Quite literally, cancer cured me from all that crap, and in its own strange way, proved to be the catalyst that’s led me to an infinitely happier life. I want to share positive, uplifting energy with you all, to help you unlock your potential and finally free the happiness that’s inside of you. You totally deserve it. I’ll be talking to amazing guests who’ll share their stories and knowledge on a myriad of subjects, ranging from nurturing our hormonal health, to self-care in winter; from heart-wrenching stories of being bullied for being poor to becoming a multi-millionaire, to self-healing from Multiple Sclerosis; from cyclical living and nervous system regulation, to overcoming binge eating disorders, lymphatic drainage and a thousand more subjects besides. Along the way, we’ll meet inspiring entrepreneurs, powerful healers, incredible wellness experts, psychologists, coaches and amazing ‘ordinary’ people like you and I, who’ve gone through stuff and come back stronger. I’ll be talking to them all and inspiring you to get out of your own way and live your best life. I’d be delighted if you’d join me. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This episode is a heartfelt prequel to next week’s powerful conversation with Kate Moryoussef, host of The ADHD Women’s Wellbeing Podcast – where they dive even deeper into the world of women, wellness and ADHD.
In this solo episode, La shares her own journey of being diagnosed with ADHD in midlife – a moment that brought both clarity and complexity.
After years of feeling “too much” or “not enough,” La finally had language for things like time blindness, emotional overwhelm and Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD). This diagnosis became a lens through which she could finally understand her patterns, her pace and her power.
She opens up about the emotional rollercoaster that came with her late diagnosis and the importance of self-compassion, especially for women who have masked their symptoms for so long.
Key Takeaways:
- ADHD is often misunderstood, especially in women – and often misdiagnosed or missed entirely.
- A late diagnosis can bring up a mix of grief, relief and empowerment.
- Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD) can shape how we show up in relationships and the world.
- Time blindness isn’t laziness – it’s a real and common ADHD experience.
- Self-compassion is not optional – it’s essential.
- No two ADHD journeys look the same.
- Understanding your ADHD is a game-changer for growth and healing.
- Many women feel shame or judgment for how their ADHD shows up.
- Community and open conversation are everything.
- And yes – ADHD brains are beautifully creative, intuitive and full of possibility.
