    Let’s Talk About Sex After Breast Cancer (Yes, Really)
    Apr 24 2026

    Sex after breast cancer—why aren’t we talking about it more?


    In this powerful episode, Jill Frank sits down with sexologist Dr. Ross Lynn Tabisel to break the silence around intimacy, desire, and body confidence after treatment. From unexpected side effects to the emotional toll on relationships, nothing is off-limits.


    They discuss what many patients aren’t told, why sexual dysfunction is so common, and how women can take back control of their bodies and their pleasure—on their own terms.


    Raw, real, and deeply validating, this conversation shines a light on an essential part of survivorship that deserves attention.
