Confessions of an Aging Ingenue

What’s the best way to ask and receive help during a challenging health journey?

Welcome back to another insightful and humor-filled episode of the "Confessions of an Aging Ingénue" with Jenni Tooley. In today’s episode of this raw and real Season 3, aptly titled "Cancer Chronicles.", Jenni takes us through yet another week of navigating the unexpected twists and turns of life with cancer. But this isn’t just about the big "C"—it's about learning to release control, ask for help, and find peace in life, especially when facing particular challenges.

Life is full of unexpected disasters, and navigating them can feel overwhelming—especially when you're already facing something as challenging as cancer. In this episode, Jenni shares a candid, heartfelt account of her recent challenges, from dealing with a last-minute pet sitter crisis to managing the mental gymnastics of an upcoming medical procedure.

So, tune in to hear how Jenni manages these disasters with grace, humor, and a whole lot of resilience. You'll discover insights on how to cope when it feels like the rug is pulled out from under you; the importance of trusting your intuition, and the place of asking for and receiving help—even when it's hard. Don't miss this raw and honest conversation that reminds us all that chaos is inevitable, but how we handle it makes all the difference. As usual, get set for a mix of raw humor, emotional transparency, and practical wisdom!
