  Jeslyn Gorman: Advocating for Your Own Life

  Jul 29, 20261h 27mS1

  What happens when advocating for your health teaches you how to advocate for your entire life? In this episode of WE GOT THIS, Elissa Kalver sits down with world-class vocalist, breast cancer survivor, and women’s health advocate Jeslyn Gorman. Jeslyn has performed in sold-out stadiums around the world alongside artists including Taylor Swift, Jennifer Lopez, Meghan Trainor, Jason Derulo, Nick Jonas, and Rita Ora. But behind the scenes, she was also navigating a breast cancer diagnosis, fertility preservation, chemotherapy, hair loss, and the realities of continuing to perform while undergoing treatment. Together, Elissa and Jeslyn talk about what happens during—and after—cancer: the realities of survivorship, learning to protect your energy, moving beyond people-pleasing, setting boundaries, and finding the confidence to advocate for yourself both medically and personally.
