Embracing Joy: Laura Lummer on Overcoming the Fear of Happiness

We have to choose how we're going to think in life, and in order to do that, we first have to be aware of what we're thinking now.
Have you ever felt guilty for being happy, especially when others around you are struggling? You're not alone. In this episode of 'The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach', Laura Lummer tackles cherophobia, the fear of happiness. As a two-time breast cancer survivor and certified life coach, Laura dives deep into this often-overlooked issue, sharing real-life examples and practical advice on how to recognize and manage it.
She explains how some people believe that happiness will lead to something bad happening or feel they shouldn't express joy to avoid upsetting others. Through her personal experiences and professional insights, Laura offers a quiz to help you identify if you have cherophobia and suggests actionable steps to embrace joy without guilt. From talk therapy to mindfulness practices, she provides tools to shift your mindset towards positive thinking.
Laura's compassionate approach is both empowering and informative, making this episode a must-listen for anyone seeking to reclaim their happiness after a breast cancer diagnosis.
