Protecting your well-being doesn’t have to be big or complicated. Sometimes it’s sparkly. Each Friday I paint my nails—this week it was bold gold. It makes me smile every time I look down. Here’s more on that topic! jenniferadouglas.com/protecting-and… #bcsm

We don’t make breast cancer decisions with a crystal ball. We do it one step at a time. In 2019, I chose a lumpectomy. In 2022, I needed another. I didn’t spiral—I still trusted my choice. Here’s more 🔗 jenniferadouglas.com/owning-my-lump… #bcsm #DCIS #lumpectomy #breastcancer

I didn’t just want the cancer gone. I wanted to heal fast—and get back to homeschooling my sons. When my youngest graduated high school, I cried. Not just for him—but because I made it too. Why I chose lumpectomy: 🔗 jenniferadouglas.com/surgery-choice… #bcsm

As overwhelming as choosing between a lumpectomy or mastectomy is, there is no wrong choice. Both surgeries work. And it’s hard to decide. Here’s a process to help: jenniferadouglas.com/lumpectomy-or-… #bcsm

Just returned home from the most normal and boring physical ever. That felt amazing!

This morning’s workout? Dancing in my bedroom.💃 Since 2020, I’ve focused on higher-intensity exercise after breast cancer—and I feel stronger than ever. More stamina. More joy. Less recurrence risk jenniferadouglas.com/fitness-after-…

Yesterday I kept pressing pause. A quick game. A quiet coffee. A moment to breathe. I didn’t finish everything on my list—but I finished with peace. Post-treatment energy is a different thing. jenniferadouglas.com/choosing-where… #bcsm

Thank you for sharing our posts!!!

“How are you doing?” It’s been 6 years since I was diagnosed with DCIS, and I still get asked this often. I know what they really mean: “Are you still healthy?” The answer: I am, but it was a process. Here’s a post I wrote about it. 👉 jenniferadouglas.com/restoration-af… #bcsm #DCIS

After breast cancer, energy shifts. I’m learning that choosing where it goes is part of healing. My new blog post reflects on how I moved from “doing it all” to choosing what restores me: jenniferadouglas.com/choosing-where… #bcsm #cancersurvivorship #ABreastCancerJo

Stage Zero Doesn’t Mean Zero Challenges - Jennifer Douglas @mmejendouglas oncodaily.com/blog/jennifer-… #Cancer #Oncology #OncoDaily #Health #Medicine @CancerWorldmag

Before my lumpectomy, I focused on logistics—but what I really needed was emotional preparation. In this post, I share what I’d go back and tell myself: What helped, what surprised me, and what I wish I had known. 🔗 jenniferadouglas.com/things-id-tell…

When I was diagnosed with DCIS, I faced endless decisions, emotional weight, and exhaustion—despite a “good prognosis.” It’s not just DCIS. And you’re not alone. 💗 More here 👉 jenniferadouglas.com/its-not-just-d… #bcsm #DCIS #StageZeroDoesntMeanZeroChallenges
