The Many Faces of Cancer
As a cancer survivor and thriver, I know how important community and support are when you are facing a cancer diagnosis. That’s why I created The Many Faces of Cancer Podcast.
Each week I will be interviewing amazing people with heartfelt and inspirational stories from all sides of the cancer journey: patients, survivors and thrivers, caregivers, family and friends, and professionals. I may even throw in a bonus episode once in a while talking about things that are important to us all.
We never think it will happen to us, until it does. This podcast will be about community, knowing you’re not alone in your journey. It will also be an opportunity for people to share their stories and hopefully help others.
I hope you will all tune in. While it will be cancer stories, we all learn from others and, ultimately, these are human stories, applicable to many other areas of life.

Hope and Resilience in the Face of Cancer with Peggy Velasco
Today's guest is Peggy Velasco, a 16 year breast cancer survivor, retired in Florida with her husband and their dog Scout. Peggy had an incredible support team during her cancer journey and she pays it forward.
We had a great conversation about loss and resilience, dating after cancer, "what is, instead of what if", the importance of community, continuing to look forward, and so much more.
