Episode 19 with Sarah Newman

This conversation with Sarah Newman is an important conversation about what happens when someone has to deal with a cancer diagnosis during pregnancy, the emotional and physical journey undertaken and how to not only undergo this trauma but to come out the other side and use your experience to help others going through cancer treatment.

Sarah is the founder of Get Me Back, and a cancer exercise specialist. She is a driving force in using movement to help people manage the side effects of cancer treatment using evidence based strategies. She shared her story with me and these were some of my key takeaways:

• the importance of trusting yourself & advocating for yourself when something doesn't feel right
• getting psychological support as well as physical treatment
• what Sarah wishes she knew going through cancer treatment
• how bwst to manage cancer related fatigue (hint: not rest!)
• the importance of normalising the conversation around pelvic health during and after cancer treatment
• the role of exercise in dealing with all of the side effects of cancer & cancer treatment




Sarah is an amazing example and advocate for living well during & after cancer treatment and she continues to serve cancer survivors & thrivers globally. You can find her on Instagram as Get Me Back.
