Скачать или смотреть ATPA Episode 74: Finding Meaning After Illness: Olga Tomaszewski on Art, Healing & Hope

What helps people find meaning after a life-changing diagnosis?
How do you stay present when fear threatens to take over?
And can creativity truly become a path to healing?

In this deeply inspiring episode of the Ask the Patient Advocate Podcast, Dr. Elena Borrelli sits down with author, artist, mother of four, and 28-year breast cancer survivor Olga Tomaszewski — a woman whose story radiates resilience, faith, and transformation.

Olga shares how sculpting, painting, and writing became more than creative outlets — they became lifelines. Through fear, uncertainty, motherhood, and healing, art helped her reconnect with herself, find her voice, and ultimately become the hope she once searched for during her own diagnosis.

Together, Elena and Olga explore:
✔️ How creativity can bring peace, reflection, and emotional healing
✔️ What it’s like to navigate breast cancer as a young mother
✔️ How faith and inner guidance shaped Olga’s journey
✔️ Why finding meaning after illness is possible — and powerful
✔️ What Olga wants every newly diagnosed person to know
✔️ The inspiration behind her books, including Be Still: Healing One Moment at a Time

This episode is a reminder that healing is not just physical — it’s emotional, spiritual, and deeply personal. Olga’s courage and honesty offer comfort, connection, and the reassurance that no one walks their journey alone.

If you’re facing a diagnosis, supporting a loved one, or simply searching for meaning during difficult seasons, this conversation will uplift your spirit and strengthen your heart.
