Overview

Many people believe the topic of surviving prostate cancer relates only to men. It doesn’t. This disease can take a serious toll on women, too. Cindie Hubiak’s book, A Woman’s Guide to Thriving after Prostate Cancer, shows how women can take their experience with prostate cancer beyond surviving to thriving.

Suffering in silence after her husband’s diagnosis, Cindie woke up to her deep-seated unhappiness. Her search for remedies led her to not only revitalize her relationship with her husband but thrive as a sensual, sexual woman. The author guides readers to honor and grieve losses until reaching acceptance, seek intimacy, strive for sexual fulfillment and deepen the connection with your own spirit and All That Is.

Larry L. Bans, MD, Medical Director, Prostate Solutions of Arizona, notes in the foreword that an important piece of a man’s healing journey often gets overlooked in the prostate cancer story—the physical and emotional well-being of a patient’s spouse. He notes that Cindie’s book, “shows how to apply concrete ideas and practices to a woman’s own odyssey through her loved one’s prostate cancer journey.”

About the Author

Cindie Hubiak is the author of “A Woman’s Guide to Thriving after Prostate Cancer” and co-founder of Solutions for Intimacy, www.SolutionsForIntimacy.com, where she guides couples and individuals through the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of intimacy following treatment of prostate cancer.

After her husband, Steve Frohman, was treated for prostate cancer, the couple searched for months, to no avail, for resources to help them overcome the emotional and intimate challenges associated with the disease. Determined to create a solution and assist others in the same position, Cindie and Steve founded Solutions for Intimacy, which offers prostate cancer survivors and their partners the tools, knowledge and resources to live sexually fulfilling lives after prostate cancer.

In “The Guide,” which Cindie wrote in response to the limited support available for women impacted by prostate cancer, she shares her personal struggles and stages of the grieving process, as well as the coping strategies she explored throughout the various stages of the disease.

In addition to operating Solutions for Intimacy, Cindie serves as president & CEO of the Arizona Society of CPAs, and has volunteered for more than 20 years as a sexuality educator. Prior to her current role, she served as tax manager for an international accounting firm, as director of human resources for a company of 1,500 employees, as general manager of a manufacturing plant in Singapore, and as director of finance in Europe for a worldwide manufacturer.

She serves as a trustee for a mutual fund and has been twice honored as one of Phoenix’s top 10 outstanding women in business and the community. She holds a Master’s in Business Administration and Bachelor of Science in accounting from Arizona State University.

Cindie and Steve reside in Scottsdale, Arizona. They love traveling and learning new ways to increase their intimacy.
