Episode 367: Real Talk: Reframing Bad Days
Monday, 12 January, 2026

Lakysha was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2018. Her cancer was caught early but test results showed there was a high chance of recurrence. She required surgery, chemotherapy, radiation and a hormone blocker for five years. She also had a hysterectomy to minimize her risk of other cancers. Life is a journey for her, filled with ups and downs, new challenges and triumphs. And Vonya is the friend we all need. She’s the friend who helps you reframe your bad days and encourages you to focus on something that brings you joy. She helped Lakysha normalize what she was going through and accept her emotions as they came. She’s also the friend who reminds you not to let one bad day spill into the next day.
