The Podcast
Beyond the Good Girl is an audio memoir podcast.
When I got cancer, I didn't fall apart —well at least not in public.
Idid what I always did.
I held it together, performed okay, made sure everyone around me was fine, and quietly got on with it. I finished the end of term reports before I got on the plane to start chemotherapy. I smiled at the nurses. I tried to be the best patient they'd ever had. All while quietly panicking on the inside.
The good girl didn't disappear when I got sick. She just put on scrubs.
These are the stories of what happened — and how I dealt with it using the only tools I had. Funny, honest, and very specific. Start anywhere. Or start here.
