Parenting Through the Unthinkable: Paula Edgar on Cancer, Work, and Resilience EP 74

When your child is diagnosed with cancer, everything changes, including how you parent, work, and lean on the people around you. Lori Mihalich-Levin and Jason Levin talk with attorney, speaker, entrepreneur, and working parent Paula Edgar about her son’s childhood cancer diagnosis and the five-year journey that followed.

Paula shares how her family navigated fear, treatment, work demands, and uncertainty while building a community of support around them. She also offers practical guidance for helping families facing childhood cancer, from what not to say to the concrete ways friends, relatives, and colleagues can lighten their load.
