When Jean first came to Wellspring, she was searching for support as she navigated a breast cancer diagnosis. Over the years, Wellspring became much more than a resource.

The strength of Wellspring lies not only in our evidence-based programs, but in the power of the Wellspring network.

While attending the Canadian Association of Psychosocial Oncology (CAPO) conference this week in St. John’s Newfoundland, Wellspring leaders from across the country had the opportunity to connect and learn together.

Pictured are Amanda Smart and Judi Perry Brinkert from Wellspring Cancer Support Foundation (middle), alongside Niki Fehr, Program Director at Wellspring Alberta, and Jacqueline Bloom, Director of Wellspring New Brunswick.

By working collaboratively, we are able to share expertise, translate research into practice, and bring high-quality, evidence-based cancer support programs to more people and communities across Canada.

Catch up on our latest Be Well talk! This is the second part of a 3-part series called Navigating Persistent Pain After Breast Cancer.

In this Be Well Talk recording, we move beyond the “why” and focus on the “how,” offering clear, evidence-informed strategies you can start using right away.

This session blends pain neuroscience with accessible tools you can use in daily life. We’ll cover gentle movement approaches that retrain the brain body connection, ways to reduce sensitivity in the nervous system, and techniques that help you navigate flare ups with more confidence and less fear. You’ll learn how stress, sleep, pacing, and mindset influence pain—and how small, consistent adjustments can create meaningful shifts. 🎗️
