Dreaming with Cancer: Why Your Heart's Desires Still MatterCan you dream when you have cancer? Should you? In this episode, we challenge the idea that dreaming is frivolous during a cancer journey and explore why staying connected to what your heart wants is actually essential for healing.We talk about what happens when you shut down your desires to be "practical," how cancer can force you to stop performing someone else's dream and start listening to your own, and why giving yourself permission to want things (even when the future feels uncertain) is one of the most important acts of self-love you can practice.Shariann shares her personal story of how cancer screamed at her to stop living the prescribed "American dream" and start tuning into what she actually wanted. We discuss the magic that happens when someone asks "what do you need?" and you're finally able to articulate an answer.You'll also hear about our DREAM Goals tool, a process that holds your hand through exploring your heart's whispers across different areas of life, without the pressure of traditional goal-setting. Because these aren't the kind of goals that make you feel responsible or afraid. They're intentions that stay alive in your heart and start flowing once you give them voice.In this episode, we talk about why dreaming during cancer isn't frivolous but healing, the difference between performing someone else's dream and living your own, how to practice asking for what you want, what makes DREAM Goals different from traditional goal-setting, and why it's okay to dream even when you don't know if it will come true.Whether you're currently on a cancer journey, supporting someone who is, or simply feeling disconnected from what your heart actually wants, this conversation offers permission to dream again.Connect with us: Website: https://thecancerjourney.com Instagram: @thecancerjourney Facebook: The Cancer Journey Institute#cancerjourney #cancersupport #dreamingwithcancer #cancercoaching #healingjourney #cancerthriver
