Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll Part 2: Leslie Heron on How to Talk About Sex After Cancer
Show Notes

Welcome to "Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll," a multi-part series where we talk with experts about three topics that often do not get discussed during treatment.

This episode is Part 2 of our two-part conversation about sex after cancer. We talk to Leslie Heron, a nurse and a nurse practitioner with over 37 years of direct patient care experience. Leslie is board certified in family practice, and as a nurse coach, she works with individuals as well as community and professional groups on issues of cancer survivorship. She's also the cofounder of The Green Labyrinth, a retreat for family & professional caregivers addressing grief, loss, and burnout.

Leslie's perspective and guidance on the topic of sex and cancer takes into account a range of diagnoses and ages. She provides practical and encouraging advice people will benefit from wherever they are in their cancer experience or in the cancer experience of someone they love.
