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.

Cancering: Exploring the Seasons of Emotional Healing with Lauren Huffmaster
Today's guest is Lauren Huffmaster, certified cancer coach, founder of Adventure Therapy Foundation, podcast host, author, and inspiration. She has been in treatment for breast cancer since 2015, diagnosed at age 35. She is now living each day to the fullest with metastatic breast cancer.
We talk all about the emotional side effects of cancer, especially fear, isolation, and broken identity, the importance of grieving and "the void" (where active treatment ends), post-traumatic growth, hope vs. fear, and so much more!
Emotional healing is an aspect of cancer that isn't addressed nearly enough. This conversation is just the tip of the iceberg. You can get more by connecting with Lauren and reading her book.
