They dig into what it really takes to build trust with someone going through one of the hardest experiences of their life, why feeling heard is directly connected to healing, and what shifts when someone finally asks - not "how are you?" but "how are you, really?"This episode is for anyone on a cancer journey, supporting someone who is, or working in a space where the emotional side of cancer often goes unaddressed.Chapters: 0:00 — Welcome and PESH check-in 2:45 — What is trust?
