What if healing isn't a single moment or a fireworks-style breakthrough? What if sometimes healing is a long quiet burn - a long sunrise? In this solo episode, I'm sharing what it's been like to be in the middle of the most gutting transition of my life. I've been through change before, but this one has stretched across years. It's shed versions of myself I've lovingly, but slowly, let go of. And the truth is: there is no pressure to rush your transition, or what I'm calling a “sunrise”. It's not a race. It's a return to who you are at your core. What you'll hear about in this episode: That “I thought I'd be done by now” feeling and the myth of arrival The metaphor of the longest sunrise and why your healing doesn't need to look like a montage How ignoring your intuition in the past might still hold insight for today, and what changes when you believe your intuition now Letting go of the need for dramatic transformation and embracing slow, steady shifts If you're deep inside your own transition, wondering when clarity will arrive, this is your reminder: you're not behind. You're just in the sunrise.

“The five-year relative survival rate for localized, or cancer that is confined to the colon or the rectum, is 91% for colon cancer and 90% for rectal cancer. Distant, metastasized to other organs—the five-year survival rate is 13% for colon and 18% for rectal cancer. So that really shows you the huge difference in screening and where screening can come in and make better outcomes,” ONS member Kris Mathey, DNP, APRN-CNP, AOCNP®, gastrointestinal medical oncology nurse practitioner at The James Cancer Hospital of The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about colorectal cancer screening.

Highlights From This Episode “Interestingly, recent studies suggest that starting screening even earlier than 45, such as age 40, could significantly reduce mortality and incidence rates, especially as colorectal cancer is rising among younger adults.” TS 2:42 “[Artificial intelligence]-enhanced screening tools are also being developed to improve sensitivity, reduce turnaround time, and enable real-time monitoring of disease progression. These innovations aim to make screening more accessible and accurate, especially in our underserved populations. So there's a huge impact on early detection.” TS 4:07 “Those with multiple chronic conditions or limited mobility may be less likely to complete screening, and those results may be harder to interpret. I mentioned a little bit earlier about our underserved or minority populations. Those barriers such as limited health literacy, lack of insurance, and cultural stigma can reduce screening uptake and ultimately follow-through.” TS 12:25 “Patient navigation programs—this is where we have trained navigators to help patients schedule appointments, understand procedures, and ultimately overcome some of these logistical hurdles. These have actually been shown to significantly boost screening rates. Also, those mailed stool-based-test kits—sending those kits directly to a patient home, especially with a personalized letter from a provider to add that extra little touch, has proven effective in increasing participation.” TS 21:29 “Our screening can detect cancer before symptoms appear and even identify precancerous polyps, which can be removed to prevent cancer altogether. Studies actually show that regular screening can reduce colorectal cancer mortality by up to 35% and the incidence of advanced-stage disease by nearly 30%. Just another reason why screening really does matter.” TS 25:53 “Evaluating our implicit bias, especially in something as critical as colorectal cancer, requires both introspection and instructional supports. One way of doing this is by auditing your practice patterns, really looking at reviewing your own screening recommendations and follow-up rates across different patient demographics. So are there certain groups that are less likely to be offered a colonoscopy? I think some of us may have an implicit bias—you see a patient; you're like, ‘There's no way they're going to agree to that, so I'm just not going to offer it.' Where we don't offer it, they don't have that opportunity to decline that. That can lead to further delay. And those patterns can reveal a bias in action.” TS 28:18

“You don't just do Ayahuasca, you carry her with you forever.” The time is here, I'm ready to share more about my experience participating in an Ayahuasca ceremony. This episode isn't a step-by-step rundown of every moment of my four nights in Costa Rica at Rythmia Retreat– I'll save that for the private podcast series. In this episode, I am giving you the “quick and dirty”: what this medicine actually is, why I felt called to it, and how it changed me. Let me be clear: this is sacred. Not a wellness trend. Not a party drug. Not something you DIY with a dude named Chad who ordered a vine online. This is indigenous medicine, with a deep history and lineage that deserves reverence, not appropriation. I chose Rythmia specifically because of their relationship with respected indigenous leaders like Taita Juanito, a Colombian shaman who led one of the most profound nights of my entire experience. They do it right: sacred space, trained facilitators, traditional songs and prayers, deep intention-setting. Ayahuasca is a full-body, full-soul, spiritual experience. Not recreational or for kicks. It's for healing, and if you feel the quiet pull toward it, there might be something there for you. And if you don't? That's okay, too. This path isn't for everyone, and it's not supposed to be. There are so many other transformative modalities to support your healing. Listen to that voice, she knows what's right for you. What you'll hear about in this episode: What Ayahuasca actually is, and the powerful compound it shares with the brain during birth and death The sacredness of honoring the cultures and lineages that carry this medicine (*see below for more cultural context) Why some people feel called to sit with this medicine (and how you'll know if that's you) What happens in ceremony, like, yes, the purging, but also the healing Why this isn't a magic bullet, but a powerful tool for release, rebirth, and reconnection Want more details? I'll be breaking down each ceremony: including the wild fourth night where I thought I was gonna die over in my free private Ketamine Therapy podcast series. Head to andreaowen.com/journey for access. *Now for some more cultural context: cultures and lineages who have used Ayahuasca for generations: Shipibo-Conibo (Peru): Known for their healing songs, icaros, and intricate patterns that come from ayahuasca visions Asháninka (Peru and Brazil): Use ayahuasca as part of spiritual practice and plant dietas Kofan and Siona (Colombia): Taita Juanito (facilitator I experienced at Rythmia) is from this lineage Huni Kuin (Brazil): Use ayahuasca (called nixi pae) in collective healing rituals Tukano and Yawanawá peoples (Brazil/Colombia): Deep ceremonial history with plant medicines, including ayahuasca Resources: Devotion: A 6-Month Private Coaching Experience My Ketamine Therapy Journey secret podcast series Rythmia Retreat Andrea on Instagram @heyandreaowen Episode 666: 365 Happy Bedtime Mantras with Shannon Kaiser Episode 636: Letting Go of What's Holding You Back with Shannon Kaiser ✨Interested in a future Rythmia Ayahuasca retreat with me?

“Just remember that these patients, these are human beings who had lung cancer. It's a scary disease. And we don't want to just say, ‘Oh, well, that's a horrible disease. They probably won't do well.' These patients are living longer. Our treatments are better. And so no matter who they are, they have every chance of surviving long term for this,” ONS member Beth Sandy, MSN, CRNP, thoracic medical oncology nurse practitioner at the Abramson Cancer Center at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about lung cancer survivorship.

Highlights From This Episode “For patients with stage I disease, they have a pretty good chance of getting to that five-year mark, somewhere probably in the 70%–80% range, depending on if you're stage IA or IB. Then it starts to drop obviously if you go up stages with patients.” TS 6:36 “Our radiation oncologists … and the dosimetrists in radiation oncology do a great job trying to line those beams up to minimize toxicity to those other vital organs. But we just can't always do that. You may see long-term fibrotic changes within the lungs. You could see cardiac damage over time. You can see esophagitis or [gastrointestinal] toxicity, particularly in the esophagus over time, post-radiation. And just the fact of having disease or cancer in the lungs, you can have breathing problems and pulmonary issues long term.” TS 10:37 “Part of survivorship in lung cancer is smoking and smoking cessation. I know it can be hard for people to quit, even people who had curative-intent treatment for their lung cancer—and so keeping up with smoking cessation. And that can be hard again if you don't have access to a smoking cessation specialty or if you live with other people who smoke and don't have really access to programs to help you quit and help you stay quitting.” TS 17:26 “I should talk about autoimmune diseases as part of immunotherapy. We give immunotherapy now in the curative setting preoperatively, postoperatively, post-chemoradiation, so they may get a year or so of immunotherapy. They may develop some sort of autoimmune toxicity from that. Usually that will go away once we stop the immunotherapy. But I've seen some things persist over time. That can go anywhere from like mild eczema that came about to things like more serious, like maybe lupus or scleroderma that may have developed as part of your immunotherapy. And we may stop the immunotherapy, but that may linger on.” TS 25:02
I share a recent breakthrough in my entrepreneurial journey with Podsqueeze. After experimenting with various marketing strategies, I discovered the power of targeted press releases. Initially, I struggled with traditional PR methods, but I found success by reaching out to niche podcasting newsletters.

This week, I'm joined by Alanna Kaivalya, PhD, author of The Way of the Satisfied Woman, expert on mythology, psychology, and spiritual empowerment. Alanna was someone I could've talked to for hours. From the second I learned her book title, I knew I had questions. She brings insight on what it actually looks like to live a fully embodied, empowered life as a woman, and how we can unlearn the conditioning that tells us we need to overfunction, overgive, and override our truth in order to be loved. Throughout our conversation, Alanna breaks down the truth about self-abandonment, why so many strong women end up in relationships that drain them, and how reclaiming our feminine energy is the key to living a life that actually feels satisfying. What you'll hear about in this episode: Why women tend to overgive in their lives and relationships and how to recognize self-abandonment when it's happening (4:49) How dropping the “mask of masculinity” led Alanna to reclaim her energy and live more authentically (15:57) Why strong, capable women often find themselves in unhealthy relationships and how to shift the dynamic or walk away (21:13) The interplay between masculine and feminine energies in a relationship, and how it looks when it actually works (34:24) Resources: Devotion: A 6-Month Private Coaching Experience Andrea on Instagram @heyandreaowen Alanna's Resources to Becoming a Satisfied Woman Alanna's website Alanna's book, The Way of the Satisfied Woman Book recommendations: I love a good personal development book, and you do too, right?

“That's what metastatic breast cancer looks like now—patients can live an extended period of time. And sometimes I think we forget to cheer for stable disease. I tell patients they can live with weeds in their garden; they just can't let the weeds take over their garden. And today we don't have a cure. We live in a rapidly changing time in oncology, and so there's just so much hope right now that we can offer patients,” ONS member Kristi Orbaugh, RN, MSN, RNP, AOCN®, nurse practitioner at Community Hospital North Cancer Center in Indianapolis, IN, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about patient communication in the metastatic breast cancer setting.

Highlights From This Episode “I think the most important and vital piece of having those conversations is making sure that we know—really know—that patient, because if we know them, that helps guide what they're needing right then, helps guide our verbiage, helps guide disciplines that we bring in.” TS 2:04 “What do they want to hear? I've been in practice a really, really long time, and I've had the entire spectrum. I've had patients say, ‘Tell me every single detail.' I mean, they want pictures. They want graphs. They want me to draw things. I've even had patients that want me to take markers and mark their body parts. … And then I've had patients that say, ‘I don't want to know anything. I trust my healthcare team. I'm going to proceed with treatment, but I really don't want to know anything.'” TS 3:40 “Remember to make things as simple as possible until we really know what the patient knows. We don't send our children to school and start them out in eighth grade; we send them to kindergarten for a reason. So we get basic information, and then we build on that. And I think we need to remember that when we're doing our patient education, whether it's regarding new chemotherapy or treatment plans or palliative care, we've got to remember to start simple. And maybe we build on that very quickly, or maybe it takes a bit more time. Number one—I actually think it helps with adherence because patients understand what we're asking of them and why we're asking that of them.” TS 12:00 “I think what's really kind of key to keep in mind is that patients are going to seek information. And so, we need to make sure that we're giving them really good, reliable, durable information because if we are not giving them good websites, if we're not giving them good written material, if we're not giving them good verbal information and education, they're going to contact ‘Dr. Google.' Dr. Google is good for a lot of things, but sometimes patients can go down a rabbit hole that's not appropriate or not accurate. That's not a good place for them to be.” TS 14:35 “If we find biomarkers that we call actionable, meaning that we find this mutation and we have a drug that blocks that mutation, that is what is going to guide and drive our treatment. Sometimes that can take a bit of time, right? And if we have a patient and they just find out they have metastatic disease, will they want treatment yesterday. And I understand that. … But frequently there is a very important period of waiting and allowing us to learn that enemy better by reviewing genomic testing, looking at that next-generation sequencing, looking at any positive biomarkers in breast cancer. They may have started out ER/PR positive. Are they still ER/PR positive?” TS 23:46 “I think when we're talking about goals of care, first of all, we need to make sure that the patient understands, when we're talking about metastatic disease today…, this is not a disease that we can cure, but hopefully it's a disease that we can manage for years to come. With that in mind, what's important to that patient? What is important to that patient in terms of life goals? What's important to that patient in terms of toxicities that they will allow and toxicities that they won't allow? TS 29:22 “If don't have a lot of medical knowledge, taking a pill seems less important than getting an IV. It seems like a bigger deal if I would miss getting my IV therapy. ‘Oh, whoops, I forgot to take a pill. Maybe it's not such a big, important piece of my treatment.' So education—when we set that patient down, helping them understand how this drug works, mechanism of action in a simple term, why it's important to take it as scheduled, why it's important to take it with food or without food, why it's important to take it consistently.” TS 34:41
It's bold. It's fast. And it's the first of its kind in nurse anesthesiology. Sharon and guest co-host AANA President Jan Setnor welcome back nurse innovator Rebecca Love, RN, MSN, FIEL to introduce a groundbreaking addition to the AANA Annual Congress: the first-ever Nurse Anesthesia Hackathon. Rebecca has always challenged the status quo and this year she's bringing that energy straight to the AANA with something bold and exciting. From patient safety to AI to perioperative brain health, the challenges are real, and so is your chance to make a difference. Here's some of what you'll hear in this episode:
I had a powerful conversation with a client this morning that led me here: the topic of guilt, and more specifically, what it looks like when guilt keeps us from choosing ourselves. This client shared that radical self-acceptance, for her, meant removing guilt when I make decisions based on what I want. This is so common. Especially for women. We are deeply conditioned to believe that putting ourselves first is selfish, that our value lies in how much we give, how selfless we are, how much we sacrifice. So in this episode, I'm breaking down what guilt actually is (and what it isn't), why we often believe getting rid of it completely is the goal (hint: it's not), and how we can begin to untangle our conditioning from the truth. In addition, I talk about practicing a little self-awareness when guilt shows up. What you'll hear about in this episode: Guilt is woven into the tapestry of our social conditioning as girls and women The differences between guilt, shame, humiliation, and embarrassment and why that matters Guilt is about behavior: about making a mistake and making amends, not about who you are as a person Why we often feel guilty for putting ourselves first, even when we've made no mistake This episode featured two reflective questions which I'll leave here for reference: How often have you said no to yourself out of fear of feeling guilty? When guilt shows up, ask: Is this truly something I need to make amends for? Or is this just my conditioning?” Remember, you get to choose what's true for you, even when guilt tries to argue otherwise.

Episode 367: Pharmacology 101: PARP Inhibitors “We know that in cells that are proliferating very quickly, including cancer cells, single-strand DNA breaks are very common. When that happens, these breaks are often repaired by the PARP enzyme, and the cells can continue their replication process. If we block PARP, that repair cannot happen. So in blocking that, these single-strand breaks then lead to double-strand breaks, which ultimately is leading to cell apoptosis,” Danielle Roman, PharmD, BCOP, manager of clinical pharmacy services at the Allegheny Health Network Cancer Institute in Pittsburgh, PA, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about the PARP inhibitor drug class.

It is one of those targeted therapies that does affect blood cell counts. So I'd say the blood cell count that is most commonly affected here is the hemoglobin. So, anemia very frequent complication that we see, probably a little bit more with olaparib compared with other drugs, but we see it as a class side effect. And we can also see neutropenia and thrombocytopenia with these agents, probably a little bit more with niraparib versus the others, but again, you can see it across all of these drugs.” TS 8:16 “We mentioned that rare risk of MDS and AML. This isn't a particularly scary thing if you talk to patients about it. Because of the rarity that we see this, it isn't something that we need to overemphasize, but I think careful monitoring of blood counts in is stressing the importance of that and early intervention here is very important.” TS 16:55 “This is a collaborative effort. And because of the home administration here, these patients do need to be followed very closely. So we are not laying eyes on them usually with the frequency that we do when we have patients actually coming into our infusion centers for treatments—so making sure that there is a plan for regular follow-up with these patients to ensure that they're getting that lab work done, that that's being looked at closely, that we're adjusting the dose if we need to based on that lab work, that we are managing the patient's fatigue. Again, that potentially dose reductions may be needed if patients are having that extreme fatigue.” TS 19:34 “I think one of those [misconceptions] could be that they're only effective in patients that have that BRCA1/2 mutation. And again, remember here that there is some data in particular disease states that we can use them and that they work in the absence of those mutations.” TS 25:12
I'm so excited for you to hear this conversation with Amina AlTai. She's enthusiastic, warm, and wicked smart, and her work around ambition is deeply important. Amina is a holistic career coach and chronic illness advocate who helps leaders lead from their brilliance and truth. Her new book, The Ambition Trap, reframes what ambition means, and how it can be a tool for healing and wholeness instead of burnout and over-functioning. We discuss the two types of ambition: the kind rooted in purpose and values, and the kind that comes from pain, people-pleasing, and old wounds. Plus, Amina shares her own story about autoimmune diagnoses and near organ failure; and how they shaped the framework she now teaches. As Amina says, “Ambition is the desire to grow,”and anything is possible with your ambition when it's coming from that place of purpose and wholeness.
