Let’s talk about what happens when our relationships shift after a diagnosis. This isn’t just about sex or dating—it’s about self-worth, boundaries, and finding the strength to walk away from relationships that no longer serve us.

We’ll explore:
Navigating divorce or breakup after diagnosis
Reclaiming intimacy on your own terms
How diagnosis can clarify what we deserve in partnership

Whether you’re partnered, single, healing, or questioning, this panel offers space for honesty, reflection, and radical self-trust.
