My Personal Space
February 7, 2025You are not alone. And even though this mountain feels impossible to climb, this too will one day lie behind you. Our wish for you is that you get to know your strength and courage on this journey of learning more about your inner strength. Because darling, you are strong and courageous, even if you can’t see or feel it now.
This is a healing journey. Yes, it is hard, and yes how we all wish this were not necessary. But if we remain open, curious, and brave, there is so much more to discover beyond what we think and feel right now.
Take a deep breath and know that you can do this.
From all of us at Project Flamingo
Words of Wisdom
“The breast cancer journey is unique for every patient. Every person and every cancer is different. This enables us to target and treat it with much greater success and should encourage patients to know that hope is ever present, the cure is possible, and above all, that they can play an active role in their healing.”
Dr Liana Roodt, Breast & Endocrine Surgeon, Founder and Chair of Project Flamingo
“Instead of asking “Why me?”, I have learned to ask “Why not me?” Moving from feeling like a victim of circumstances outside of my control, I have discovered my strength. This journey is all part of the human experience – and has put me on a wonderful path of discovery and recovery. As someone standing on the other side of this mountain, I can say that I have not just survived, but thrived!”
Michelle Rennie, Breast Cancer Survivor, Director of Project Flamingo
“Healing represents an expansion of conciousness and a movement in the direction of wholeness and health. We can be healed by our illness but not cured of it. Or we can by cured of our illness but not healed by it. Healing may or may not result in cure.”
Dr Maria Christodoulou, Medical Doctor & Integral Health Coach
