Welcome to Without Regret, the podcast where we dive deep into the untold stories of survival and transformation. I'm your host, Tamara and today's episode is one of my favorites. I was excited to talk to Edward because his story is so different from what we usually talk about. He had to overcome an aggressive cancer that a lot of people don't survive through. He outlines his journey, the good the bad and the ugly and the funny, in his book titled "Cancer, Musical Theatre & Other Chronic Illnesses", which has been re-released to celebrate 10-years cancer free. I was also excited because he's kind of a big deal on TikTok Edward gets real and raw in his story of survival and what it is REALLY like to have cancer, get treatment and ultimately recover - all with an incredible sense of humor. We also go down a social media shaming rabbit hole at the end, but it is a great debate wort sticking around for!

When we constantly live in the past or future and compare ourselves to an idealized version of who we think we should be, we deprive ourselves of experiencing true joy because the magical things we are trying to achieve are not here. When we live in the past or chase after the future, we miss out on the present moment and fail to appreciate the blessings we currently possess. Authentic joy can only be found when we embrace the present, accept our bodies as they are, and express gratitude for what they do for us. Instead of focusing on achieving an ideal weight or an impeccable level of fitness, we should identify the emotions we desire and start cultivating them in the present. Transforming our lives requires self-acceptance, and envisioning our transformation in the present can accelerate our results and bring fulfillment to our current reality. In this inspiring conversation with Edward Miskie, he generously shares his journey through a rare cancer diagnosis and struggles with alcohol, body dysmorphia, and other challenges. He also discusses how these experiences inspired his book and how he emerged as a survivor and victor despite it all. Our discussion covers various topics, including self-comparison, living in the present with gratitude, the power of choice, and being kinder to ourselves. Edward received a devastating diagnosis of Rare Enlarged B-Cell Burkitt's-like Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma at 25. Prior to his diagnosis and commencement of treatment, he was in a relationship, worked as an actor, and cherished a close-knit circle of friends. However, after completing his treatment, he had to start all over. Edward's inspiring journey is one that you can't miss! What You'll Learn from this Episode: How comparing yourself with your past and chasing the future steals your joy and derails your outcome. How to let go of attachments, find inner strength, and align our plans with what we want How to cultivate a desired future in the present instead of pursuing external goals to live a more fulfilling life. How to practice self-compassion and gratitude for our bodies and what we have to create positive health experiences. And much more! “If you want a different life you have to change the one that you have.” – Edward Miskie. Topics Covered: 01:17 – Edward's diagnosis of a rare form of cancer 03:58 – Self-comparison and living in the past and future 07:19 – Chasing the gold that you're never going to get 10:27 – Harnessing and living your transformation at the moment 14:03 – Getting what you want when you have what you wanted 16:50 – Edward's cancer coping mechanism and how they served him 21:18 – What Edward would change from his coping experience 11 years later 22:22 – Edward's advice to anyone going through a similar experience 23:54 – Edwards healing; what it took, and what it was like for him 28:54 – Choosing your identity: Edwards turning point two years ago 31:25 – Edward's final words of inspiration 32:42 – How to connect with Edward and get his book Key Takeaways: If you know the feelings you want in the future, you can start living them now. Health is not a state but a feeling that comes with self-acceptance and generosity. Live under the assumption that you will leave and make as many good memories as possible. Whatever we tolerate is what we continue to get. Be kinder to yourself and step into yourself.

What happens to your life during and after treatment. Relationships, career, wants, needs... what happens to YOU. You can't go back, so you gotta forge forward; the ultimate transformation. Through my own personal story of insanity and indecencies, I talk about all things survival, and getting back on the horse - even if its a different horse.A little about the book -In this fantasy, non-fiction, funny-as-cancer-can-be musical theatre fever dream fueled by chemo, alcohol, sex, & heartbreak you will experience the honest, raw & oftentimes hilarious view of Edward, as he navigates his way through the painful realities of being a full-time cancer patient - indecencies, heartbreaks, wins, shenanigans & more.

Edward Miskie is an actor, writer, producer, singer, composer, and dot connector. He is also the sole survivor of a rare Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and author of “The 10 Year Cancer Survivorship Edition of Cancer, Musical Theater, & Other Chronic Illnesses.” The book falls in the newly minted genre by Edward himself as being “as a funny-as-cancer- can-be fantasy non-fiction. It has been described as a musical theater fever dream fueled by chemo, alcohol, sex, and heartbreak, and also comes with a disclaimer that you do not need to know or like musical theater to cry and laugh your way through the indecencies of the book. Edward describes how he went from performing in a production of Hairspray in Reno to being a cancer patient receiving chemotherapy at the age of 25 with a dire prognosis of recovering. He chronicles his journey from diagnosis to cancer free, including that he was broken up with, lost his best friend, and missed career opportunities while losing his hair, his body, his sense of identity all while planning his own funeral. Edward shares his story with levity and humor, including the dark times and the fear of going through cancer treatment as well as the difficulty trying to go back to his life as it previously was. But cancer changed everything. Eventually he realized that he was given a rare opportunity to start over, reinvent himself, and create a new life for himself. This episode is for everyone who has gone through or is going through tough times including cancer, chronic illness, relationship problems, financial issues, etc., who needs some positive energy, encouraging words, and a chance to connect with someone who's been there, done that, and experienced the heartache and indignities that goes along with it. Heads up, there is some salty language and subjects that might not be suitable for young ears, so it is for adults only. Download this episode to learn how you can turn your trials and tribulations into musical theater. https://www.edwardmiskie.com/author https://www.facebook.com/edwardmiskie/ https://twitter.com/EdwardMiskie https://www.linkedin.com/in/edwardmiskie/ https://www.tiktok.com/@edwardmiskie https://www.instagram.com/edwardmiskie/

Our latest conversation is with actor, writer and author Edward Miskie, who is based in New York City. Edward hightailed it out of his rural Pennsylvania town almost immediately after graduating from high school not only because he wanted to pursue a career in theater, but because he was outed by a church elder when he was still a teenager. He never looked back, and has sustained a career as an actor, voice over artist and author with a book entitled "Cancer, Musical Theater and Other Chronic Illnesses". As you may infer from the book title, Edward is also a survivor of a rare form of lymphoma, which put his career and life on hold and also revealed some not-so-great truths about people he considered close. Listen to more of Edward's journey in this episode. I hope you enjoy!
My guest is Edward Miskie, author of a book with the great title, Cancer, Musical Theatre, and Other Chronic Illnesses, published in 2017 but now being adapted into a musical TV series.

Well, it's the singer/actor and writer of the book 'Cancer, Musical Theatre, & Other Chronic Illnesses' Edward Miskie!

Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth interview with Edward Miskie, Actor, Singer, Producer, Author, “Cancer, Musical Theatre and Other Chronic Illnesses” About Harvey's guest: Today's special guest, Edward Miskie, is an award-winning actor, singer, writer and producer who's appeared in dozens of musical theatre productions including “Ragtime”, “Mama Mia”, “Anything Goes”, “42nd Street”, “Into the Woods”, “Kiss Me Kate”, “Hairspray” and “White Christmas”. On television and film, he can be seen in “Bite Size Hallowe'en”, “Shut Up Astoria”, “Wicked Little Town”, “Chambers”, “Optima”, “The Allies” and “Cancer Can Rock”. But what compelled me to invite him on our show, is his remarkable book entitled, “Cancer, Musical Theatre and Other Chronic Illnesses”, which is a brutally honest, turbulent and sometimes hilarious account of his traumatic but thankfully triumphant experience as a 25-year old young musical theatre star, who was suddenly diagnosed with a rare form of non-Hodgkins lymphoma. The book tells the insightful, compelling, poignant, and ultimately life-affirming story of his 10-month journey back in 2012, navigating the terrifying and tempestuous world of cancer treatment. Originally published in 2017, a special edition was produced in 2022 to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of his victory over cancer.
