If you’ve ever woken up already tired or felt like you only have so much energy to give before you hit a wall, this episode is for you.

In Confidence After Cancer this week, Gabby explores one of the most overlooked parts of recovery…energy. Not just the physical kind, but emotional, mental, and spiritual energy too. Using a powerful tool called The Spoon Theory, Gabby helps you understand why your energy feels limited after cancer and how to explain it to others with compassion and clarity.

You’ll also learn how to complete your own energy audit, a simple but transformative exercise that helps you identify what drains you and what restores you. Gabby shares practical ways to protect your “spoons,” reclaim your energy, and use it on what truly matters: your healing, your loved ones, and the life you’re rebuilding.

This episode is a gentle reminder that having less energy doesn’t make you weak,it makes you wise.
