Episode Synopsis


This episode investigates the unique psychological state of existing between diagnosis and treatment outcomes. We explore how people navigate the paradox of having to plan for multiple futures simultaneously - both hopeful and challenging scenarios. Through intimate conversations with individuals in this 'middle space,' we examine how they manage practical decisions, maintain professional lives, and handle relationships while living with profound uncertainty. The episode particularly focuses on the concept of 'temporal uncertainty' and its impact on decision-making and identity formation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
