Navigating Cancer TOGETHER

See Cancer Differently with Martha Tettenborn

Wed, 02 Mar 2022 11:00:00 GMT

Martha Tettenborn RD is a Registered Dietitian and certified Primal Health Coach with over 30 years of experience working in various areas of nutrition. Her private health coach practice, The Cancer Doula, promotes a low-carb, whole-food-based approach to disease prevention and cancer symptom management. When diagnosed with Stage 1 ovarian cancer, Martha began exploring the research of the disease and discovered the science of cancer metabolism. This led her to develop and use a protocol of ketogenic diet with targeted therapeutic fasting to significantly impact her response to chemotherapy. Inspired by her own journey, Martha wants to help others see cancer differently – as an experience that will give you strength, wisdom, and more love for your body and life than ever before.

A few highlights from the show:

1. Cancer does not burn fuel in the same way healthy cells do.

2. Cancer cells are hungry all the time. Fasting can stress cancer cells.

3. Metabolism = Fueling = Food

4. Love your body!

About Me:

In 2011, I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma, out of the blue. I did not have any prior health concerns or issues.

Fast forward, the dreaded cancer diagnosis opened my eyes, introduced me to my purpose, and lead me to where I am today.

As a Cancer Doula, I use my 10-years of experience with cancer to support and guide others diagnosed with cancer. Many people are not familiar with what a cancer doula is. Think of me as a personal health care advocate.

How Savio Clemente Survived Cancer and Why Men Need to Upgrade

Wed, 23 Feb 2022 10:00:00 GMT

Savio P. Clemente coaches cancer survivors to overcome the confusion and gain the clarity needed to get busy living in mind, body, and spirit. He inspires health and wellness seekers to find meaning in the "why" and to cultivate resilience in their mindset. Savio is a Board Certified wellness coach (NBC-HWC, ACC), author, syndicated columnist , podcaster , stage 3 cancer survivor, and founder of The Human Resolve LLC.

A few highlights from the show:

1. Ask men how they "really" feel.

2. Toughness will only get you to some level of acceptance, some level of sensation, but it won't get you to the finish line because toughness, to some degree, is not something that you need, it's something that you kind of want.

3. The path is the middle way.

4. I Survived Cancer And Here is How I Did It book, released on 2/22/2022. Order here https://www.isurvivedcancer.co/. Also available on Amazon.

The Inspirational Caregiver with Dr. Odell Glenn, Jr.

Wed, 16 Feb 2022 10:00:00 GMT

Dr. Odell Glenn, Jr. holds four degrees in various engineering disciplines, including a doctorate in chemical engineering. He is an engineering instructor at a research university. In addition to his scholarly achievements, he serves as an ordained minister at an AME church. He is an author, motivational speaker, radio host personality, and primary caregiver to his parents. Dr. Glenn, Jr. is also the founder and CEO of a non-profit called The 3 Tier Foundation, which provides SAT prep courses for high school students, financial education workshops for entrepreneurs and small businesses, and respite care for caregivers.

A few highlights from the show:

1. Some caregivers die BEFORE the recipient of care because they are not getting the care they need. Caregivers must maintain balance and take time for themselves.

2. There may come a time when you will need professional help to care for a parent or loved one to ensure they are cared for properly. Never say never and let go of your pride. It is ok.

3. The joy is in the journey of the process. Accept that you will not understand everything.

The Benefits of Brainspotting for People Impacted by Cancer

Wed, 26 Jan 2022 10:00:00 GMT

Maren Mittal is a therapist and success coach and is most passionate about partnering with individuals to build a strong, authentic relationship with themselves, which is the foundation for building strong, authentic relationships with others. She is certified in Brainspotting, a progressive brain/body healing protocol, and The Daring WayTM, psychoeducation material based on the research of Dr. Brené Brown, two approaches that she can integrate with inner healing spiritual practices. Maren owns her private practice, Revealing Life Holistic Services, in Minnesota. In her free time, she enjoys being a mom to 2 young adults, golfing and traveling with her husband, being outdoors, and exploring new healthy recipes.

A few highlights from the show:

1. Brainspotting locates points in the client’s visual field that help to access unprocessed trauma in the subcortical brain.

2. Brainspotting is a great tool to help people get unstuck after a cancer diagnosis. Especially after treatment is complete and the next phase of survivorship starts. This is a time when many people are left feeling like, "what's next" and abandoned.

3. The practice of Safe Conversations® integrates the three brain lobes and balances the two brain hemispheres making it possible for people to talk without criticism, listen without judgment, and connect beyond differences. This creates a safer world where everyone thrives. - https://safeconversations.com/

Healthcare Is a Matter of Education with Robert Yoho

Fri, 21 Jan 2022 10:00:00 GMT

Robert Yoho calls himself a healthcare whistleblower. He practiced medicine in the United States and retired two years ago. He spent three decades as a cosmetic surgeon after a career as an emergency physician. This generalist training gave him perspective and allowed him to avoid favoring any medical specialty.

Robert has recently published two books, Butchered by Healthcare and Hormone Secrets. He has had little dealings with hospitals, Big Pharma, or insurance companies before he wrote his books. No one has ever considered him a "whale" prescriber or device implanter.

A few highlights from the show:

1. There is now one pharmaceutical sales representative for every five doctors in the US. They call the big prescribers who like and use their drugs “whales.”

2. Per Robert. How to stay healthy: (a) change your diet to a higher fat diet, (b) learn about and practice controlled fasting, (c) cut carbohydrates (simple sugars and corn sugar).

3. Having an advocate is key when navigating the healthcare system. It is ok to change your doctor if you are not feeling better.

4. Things 3 iPhone app for help getting organized. - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/things-3/id904237743

5. Visit the Cochrane Library to review evidence to inform healthcare decision-making. - https://www.cochranelibrary.com/

Thinking Outside the Box: Quantum Healing

Wed, 29 Dec 2021 10:00:00 GMT

Tom Paladino is a Scalar Energy Researcher with over 25 years of experience developing healing techniques designed to help people all over the world to recover from pathogenic infections and experience true health and wellness.

The story begins back in Tom’s undergraduate days when he became inspired by his research into the work of various scientists. Exploring the discoveries and theories of Hieronymus, Moray, Priore, and Nikola Tesla, he was intrigued by the existence of an energy that is not part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Taking this as his inspiration, he dedicated himself to a course of independent study to better understand the possibilities of this unique energy with the ultimate aim of successfully harnessing it.

Tom realized that the scalar energy he was studying has been known to many cultures throughout the ages; it may be referred to as prana, chi, radiant energy, zero-point energy, qi, orgone, or eloptic energy. Encouraged by the timeless, all-pervading nature of this fundamental energy source, and after years of experimentation and modification, Tom developed a unique healing technique using scalar energy called Scalar Light that appears to have the ability to transmute pathogens quickly and painlessly.

A few highlights from the show:

1. Scalar Light is a remote healing process, which is made possible by scalar energy instruments that harness and transmute instructive energy.

2. Tom only works with photographs. He does not work directly with people in any way. This process prevents barriers to entry.

3. Scalar Light disassembles and eradicates the molecular bonds to the DNA/RNA of over 400,000 species of harmful pathogens, heavy metals, and environmental chemicals. This frees the immune system to restore homeostasis.

Talk with Talaya - Who Needs to Know?

Wed, 22 Dec 2021 10:00:00 GMT

In this episode, I talk about sharing your cancer diagnosis with others.

A few highlights:

5 Things to Consider When Sharing Your Cancer Diagnosis

1. Think about those who will offer a positive support system.

2. Think about when and how you will share your diagnosis.

3. It is ok to not have the answers or share a lot of details.

4. Don’t feel pressured to share your diagnosis with others that you are not comfortable sharing it with. It is your choice!

5. Talk with someone who has experienced something similar. Cancer is cancer and no one knows like another person who has had to face it!

Leave me a voice message and let me know what you think. I might play your message on an upcoming episode!

Ten-Year-Old Caregiver and Chronic Oasis Creator

Wed, 15 Dec 2021 10:00:00 GMT

Rosie Paulyk is the creator of Chronic Oasis - an online community where humans who love and care for chronically ill family members reinforce, remember, or redefine who we are. In her free time (yes, she has some!) she sings Jazz, writes sassy stories with her beloved/rad Mama S, and entertains her 17-year-old zany cat, Eric.

A few highlights from the show:

1. Many caregivers have to mold themselves into society rather than honor themselves and focus on being the best they can be for their loved humans and communities.

2. Rosie intentionally changes things physically to prepare for a "new" moment. For example, before this episode, she put on a jacket that served as a very physical reminder that something fresh and new was about to happen. She says this kind of visual reminder is really helpful for her to release what was going on a moment ago.

3. Uncertainty doesn't have to be viewed as scary. It can be exciting because it could be full of possibilities.

4. Chronic Oasis is specific to chronic illnesses and family caregivers. The Chronic Oasis community is free for caregivers.

NOTE: According to a National Alliance for Caregiving and AARP survey, there are at least 3.4 million caregivers under the age of 18 nationwide. - American Heart Association News

The Birth of a Wig Resource for Women of Color

Wed, 01 Dec 2021 10:00:00 GMT

Dianne Austin is the co-founder and CEO of the startup, Coils to Locs, a direct to hospital distributor of high-quality coily, curly medical wigs for black women or any woman with highly textured hair. Coils to Locs is at the forefront of addressing an unrecognized health care disparity that impacts Black women or any women with highly textured hair experiencing chemotherapy-related hair loss: The lack of coily, curly wigs that are available at cancer centers in the U.S. that can be purchased with health insurance reimbursement. Dianne is a breast cancer survivor and diversity and inclusion expert turned community activist and entrepreneur.

A few highlights from the show:

1. Dianne goes into detail about how integrative therapies such as acupuncture, yoga, art therapy, and massage were very helpful for her. Getting these therapies helped her realize how important self-care is even when the treatment stops and into survivorship.

2. Dianne scheduled people to sit with her while she received chemotherapy. That was a way for her to make sure that the people who wanted to support her had an opportunity to do that. It was also a way for her to accept their help and support.

3. Dianne was surprised by the physical changes and issues that occurred due to chemotherapy.

4. Dianne believes that it is okay to be vulnerable and to accept that she is not Superwoman. When you reach this point, you open yourself up to help.

Trina McGee is an End of life Concierge specializing in cancer and heart-related illnesses and is a practicing practical intuitive that uses her gifts of seeing the need under the need.

Trina comes from an extensive background in Sales and Service in beauty medical sales in Optometry. Alongside her sales expertise, Trina has served over 30 plus years in holistic and alternative care. Trina takes pride in offering mentorships and side-by-side studies in the holistic health and wellbeing movement. Trina now uses these skills along with her synaesthesia to assist persons in times of planning for and preplanning for the last stages of the end of life.

A few highlights from the show:

How to Overcome Trauma with 3 F's and 4 Truths with Terry Tucker

Wed, 03 Nov 2021 09:00:00 GMT

Terry Tucker has been an NCAA Division I college basketball player, a Citadel cadet, a marketing executive, a hospital administrator, an undercover narcotics investigator, a SWAT Team Hostage Negotiator, a high school basketball coach, a business owner, a motivational speaker, an author, and most recently, a cancer warrior. He is the author of Sustainable Excellence, Ten Principles To Living Your Uncommon and Extraordinary Life. Terry and his wife have lived all over the United States and currently reside in Colorado with their daughter and Wheaten Terrier, Maggie. In 2019, Terry started the website, Motivational Check to help others find and lead their uncommon and extraordinary lives.

A few highlights from the show:

1. Ask yourself this question. Who in your life is pushing or pulling you towards your goals? More importantly, who are you pushing or pulling towards their goals?

2. Everybody is going to die, but everybody is NOT going to live. If you live your life and find your purpose, and you live that purpose, death will not be nearly as scary. You'll have a whole lot more peace when you get to that point.

3. Use pain and discomfort to harden your mind and make you a better, more determined individual.

4. Terry has been diagnosed with Acral lentiginous melanoma (ALM). It is a specific type of melanoma that appears on the palms of the hands, the soles of the feet, or under the nails.

How to Heal, Speak to Your Soul, and Keep Your Ego In Check with Lads Talk Health

Wed, 06 Oct 2021 09:00:00 GMT

James Mannion and Harry Thomas are the hosts of Lads Talk Health. They are two friends who worked with each other over 12 years ago.

They have always stayed in contact, and in 2020 they reconnected and now are loving life and helping others. Both of them are Life Coaches, and they do a lot of work with people who have terminal illnesses, relationship challenges, parenting, and child development.

James and Harry are also on amazing spiritual journeys.

They aim to have real conversations, talking about everything health!

A few highlights from the show:

1. There is a lot of evidence now that suggests that most sicknesses, especially cancers, manifest from traumas you don't deal with and the energy you don't flush out.

2. Coaching allows people to be ok with themselves and their story, let go of the limiting beliefs they've built up, and make them aware of that. Then they can start focusing on the life they actually do deserve.

3. When you are having negative thoughts, address your ego and then look at your soul.

4. Your ego makes you sick.

Living & Looking Beyond 6 Months

Wed, 22 Sep 2021 09:00:00 GMT

Kelly U'Ren Moody was diagnosed with oral cancer, also called head and neck cancer about six and a half years ago. This news came shortly after she decided to make a big career change. After spending most of her career in finance, Kelly began attending school in 2013 to obtain her certification in health coaching.

Shortly after Kelly started pursuing a new career, she faced another life change, a cancer diagnosis!

In 2016, Kelly learned that the cancer was terminal, and she had four to six months to live. Thankfully, she is still here with us, and some great things have been happening in her life.

Today, Kelly shares her story with people all over the world to provide hope and help to those who are facing cancer. She is an example of how to face it head-on!

A few highlights:

1. There is a lot that goes on behind the scenes that people don't know about. When someone has cancer and they look ok on the outside, there is a lot that is going on inside. Kelly explains that there are days when she doesn't feel so well because she is still dealing with the side effects of treatment. One of those side effects is lymphedema.

2. I am here and I am doing the best that I can. Kelly shares that telling her mother this helped to carry her and it helped the rest of her family as well.

3. Kelly's favorite word is gratitude. She talks about how angry she was for quite some time. Now she reminds herself at the end of every day how much she has to be grateful for. She prays every night, and thanks God for her day!

Preparing for the End of Life with Leanne Nolan

Wed, 15 Sep 2021 09:00:00 GMT

Leanne is a former school teacher turned yoga instructor, death doula & educator as well as a plant medicine advocate. She believes that natural psychedelic plant medicines, and their synthetic relatives hold vast potential as tools for improving health and wellness, and she is especially interested in their benefits for end-of-life anxiety.

A few highlights:

1. When I asked Leanne about the terms used for the kind of work that she does (i.e., death doula, end-of-life doula), she said that she prefers death doula because she doesn't like to hide the fact that we all do die and she doesn't want to have death be a word that we are afraid to say.

2. Death is change.

3. Many people have a fear of suffering, which can lead to a fear of dying. Plants or psychedelics help one to see that there is nothing to fear.

You can connect with Leanne at:

How Breast Cancer Led to AABCA with Reona Berry

Wed, 08 Sep 2021 09:00:00 GMT

Reona Berry is a founding member and current president of the African American Breast Cancer Alliance, Inc. (AABCA), established in 1990.

Reona is a survivor of breast cancer, first in 1990 and then again in 2019. Reona is committed to the mission of AABCA, disseminating information about breast cancer and supporting survivors in the African American community to help reduce the negative effects breast cancer has on African American/Black women, men, families, and communities.

Reona enjoys providing survivors connections and knowledge so they can come together to share their experiences, inspirational stories, and knowledge, empowering themselves and others in their cancer journey.

A few highlights:

1. A survey revealed that many families in the Black or African American community did not talk about cancer. It was often called the "Big C". Reona pointed out that it is really the "Big Secret"! She expressed how important it is to talk about cancer in the family. Family history is important.

2. Feel the fear and do it anyway.

3. AABCA will be rolling out a fund campaign in October. Just in time for Breast Cancer Awareness month called, A Little Help, A Little Hope. More information will be coming soon.

Wed, 25 Aug 2021 09:00:00 GMT

Cinde Dolphin is a four-time cancer survivor who has been through nine surgeries that required post-surgical wound-care drains. The attending nurses provided safety pins for managing the drains, instructing her to use the pins to attach heavy drains to her clothing. Cinde engineered a more effective protocol that resulted in the invention of the KILI Medical Drain Carrier, a simple mesh apron that safely and comfortably suspends drains during recovery. The device is now a standard issue at several prestigious hospitals around the U.S.

A few highlights:

1. Cancer patients should provide feedback to their medical teams. This is a way to be more engaged in the process of building solutions to medical challenges. Is there a void where the care isn't meeting your needs?

2. Caregivers can identify the needs of the patient and shortfalls in care.

3. The KILI Medical Drain Carrier's mesh design made it possible to wear it at all times. Even when bathing!
