For <a href='https://podfol.io/profile/veronika-bubenickova'><b>Veronika Bubenickova</b></a>, a seasoned product leader, that moment redefined how she approached work, wellness, and what it means to heal. We talk about the HER2+ whirlwind, the shock of chemo, the fatigue that steals sleep, and the mindset shift that turned treatment from a threat into an ally. Veronika shares the simple tools that helped her stay grounded through it all: nourishing food, gentle movement, intentional laughter, and anchoring herself in nature to restore joy and normalcy.</p><p>Her greatest act of strength came through self-advocacy, asking hard questions, seeking the right specialists, and making choices that honored both her body and her future. Beyond the medical journey, Veronika opens up about the emotional and spiritual recovery that follows survival: naming the trauma that lingers, finding peace in uncertainty, and learning how to live fully again.</p><p>Through <a href='https://lotus-journey.com/ '><b>Lotus Journey</b></a>, she now helps other women navigate that same in-between, after treatment, before life feels steady again. Her book, <a href='https://lotus-journey.com/book-diary-of-a-soul-reborn'><b><em>Diary of a Soul Reborn</em></b></a>, offers her hard-earned insights and a gentle path toward rebuilding identity, trust, and purpose. If you’re ready to move from doom-scrolling to genuine healing, this conversation is your invitation.</p><p><br/></p><p>Contact Veronika:</p><p><b>Socials: </b></p><p><a href='http://www.lotus-journey.com/'>http://www.lotus-journey.com/</a> </p><p><a href='https://veronika-bubenickova.com/links'>https://veronika-bubenickova.com/links</a></p><p><a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/veronika-bubenickova/'><b>LinkedIn</b></a></p><p><a href='https://www.youtube.com/@lotus-journey-com'><b>YouTube</b></a></p><p><a href='https://www.facebook.com/lotusjourneycom'><b>Facebook</b></a></p><p><a href='https://www.instagram.com/veronika_bubenickova/# '><b>Instagram</b></a></p><p><br/></p><p><b> </b>Are you loving the Test Those Breasts!
