Katelyn Carey
Beauty After Breast Cancer
Katelyn Carey Katelyn Carey has been working in emergency and critical care nursing for twenty years. Her exposure to patients and families in crisis led her to study, then begin teaching about how cognitive science affects healthcare and recovery. Katelyn is an award-winning speaker, an instructor, and an author. In her book, Beauty After Breast Cancer, Katelyn dove into the idea of presenting medical information in a way that was reassuring, and even uplifting. The book takes a look at one of the most fear-inspiring things that can happen to us or someone we care for, and answers the issues that arise around that fear. Katelyn will talk about the importance of finding and using role models for stressful events in our lives, as well as how to feel hopeful again after self confidence has been shaken by a body-altering event like breast cancer surgery. She'll also discuss why some resources are life-saving, and others detrimental to our health and well-being.
