The Genetic Genius Podcast with Amy Hartl
Episode #028
On this weeks episode, oncology massage expert and breast cancer survivor, Amy Hartl, discusses her story of surviving breast cancer, the BRCA gene and the community she has created for breast cancer survivors.
Here are just a few of the highlights we discuss on the show.
How did your training as a massage therapist help prepare you to help others with breast cancer but also yourself?
How did your knowledge of the BRCA gene impact the diagnosis, experience and recovery?
Why do you think it’s so important to understand the approach to feeling empowered with the information about the BRCA gene and other genetics when it comes to cancer diagnosis?
How do you think developing a deeper relationship with our own bodies is so important for healing at the cellular level?
Why is it so important to change the mindset or view around cancer and how cancer is a part of us and not separate?
What is the community you created for breast cancer survivors - how can this help women reclaim their identity?
Why is it so important to provide a platform of community for survivors?
Why is the self care piece SO important?

How do you work with survivors to help them reclaim their personal sense of empowerment?
