Just Cut It Out Podcast | Breast Cancer, Bald Parties, Boundaries & Always Going to the ShowDeb Coulter has always been a doer.She’s the person who steps in, solves the problem, takes care of everyone else and keeps moving forward.So when Deb found a lump in her breast over Labor Day weekend in 2013, she did what came naturally: she took action.Deb was diagnosed with stage 2B invasive ductal carcinoma and began chemotherapy before surgery. But as a mom with two children at home, one of her first concerns wasn’t herself. It was how to tell her kids that their mom had breast cancer—and how to make the experience less frightening for them.With help from Wonders & Worries, Deb and her husband found the words to talk to their children about her diagnosis and treatment. And when chemotherapy meant Deb was going to lose her hair, she decided to take some of the fear out of that, too.She threw a “bald party.”Neighborhood kids came over for pizza and cake, took turns cutting Deb’s hair, and eventually her own children helped shave the rest.That instinct to make things easier for everyone else followed Deb throughout treatment. But cancer also began teaching her something much harder: how to let other people show up for her.Friends wanted to bring meals. Coworkers wanted to support her. People wanted to help.At first, Deb resisted. She was used to being the caregiver, not the person being cared for. Eventually, she began saying yes—and discovered how meaningful accepting help could be for both her and the people who loved her.In this episode of Just Cut It Out, Deb and Dr. Kim Brown talk about the experiences that changed the way Deb thinks about taking care of others, setting boundaries and living a good life.Deb also speaks candidly about a decision she made during treatment.After chemotherapy, she chose to have a double mastectomy, even though only one breast needed to be removed. Thirteen years later, she wishes she had made a different choice.Deb talks openly about losing sensation after surgery and the impact that decision had on intimacy and her sex life. She knows no one could have talked her out of the decision at the time. But she hopes sharing what she knows now might help another woman ask different questions as she considers her own options.The conversation also explores the work Deb has done since cancer to understand why taking care of everyone elseIn This EpisodeFinding a breast lump and being diagnosed with stage 2B invasive ductal carcinomaHelping young children understand a parent’s cancer diagnosisHow Wonders & Worries helped Deb’s family navigate difficult conversationsTurning hair loss into a “bald party” for family and friendsLearning to accept help when you’re used to taking care of everyone elseDeb’s decision to have a double mastectomy and what she wishes she had knownSensation, intimacy and the long-term effects of breast surgeryLearning to set boundaries after cancerRecognizing when caring for others comes at the expense of caring for yourselfWhy Deb believes you should “always go to the show”Chapter Markers00:00 Welcome to Just Cut It Out00:32 Deb’s breast cancer story begins02:00 Finding a lump and getting answers quickly04:30 How do you tell your children you have cancer?06:30 Chemotherapy and the fear of losing her hair08:54 Turning hair loss into a “bald party”10:00 Learning to accept help from other people12:23 Why Deb always felt responsible for everyone13:48 Deb 2.0: Therapy, boundaries and learning to say no16:00 Looking back at her double mastectomy decision19:30 Making cancer decisions when statistics feel personal21:00 The importance of patient support and navigation23:00 “Always go to the show”24:30 Creating the Macklin Woods Grief Resource Center26:02 Helping families navigate death and funeral decisions29:24 What Deb decided to “cut out”30:30 Dr. Brown answers Deb’s question32:40 Stop spending energy on what you can’t control34:00 What we can and cannot controlAbout Just Cut It OutHosted by Dr. Kimberly Brown, Just Cut It Out explores how the experience of a cancer diagnosis can change the way we think about what it means to live a good life.Through honest conversations with patients, their families, and the healthcare professionals who care for them, Dr. Brown brings together practical wisdom and the bigger questions that can emerge when life changes unexpectedly: What really matters?
