Radiation, who knew it was tricky? Glynn sure didn’t. This episode looks at Glynn’s radiation experiences; how he took it cheaply and thought it was an easy process, only to find it was more difficult than he expected. 

We look back at the radiation process, and how thinking about Wayne’s World helped Glynn get through. We discuss the process of making Glynn’s radiation mask and the challenge of wearing it day in and day out for treatment. There was some panic to contend with, but things got easier with some experience, good skills and strategies from Glynn’s psychologist brain. We deep dive into what Glynn did to make this experience easier for himself to navigate.

As always, you’ll hear Glynn’s update on how he’s travelling - pretty darn well at this point. We’ll also look at the great things that are getting him through - his spoon full of sugar - which this week is in the form of some cheeky teenage behaviour, and his daughter expressing herself to the full. Lastly, we look at some Chemotional Intelligence - the power of our mindfulness practice.
