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.

DCIS - Stage Zero Does Not Mean Zero Challenges with Jennifer Douglas
Today's guest is Jennifer Douglas, breast cancer survivor, author, and national recognized patient advocate. Surviving DCIS (Ductal Carcinoma In Situ), she felt called to encourage others through her writing and online advocacy.
We talk all about DCIS (what it is and isn't, treatments and challenges), the journey of writing a book and why she felt called, the importance of trust in your medical team, emotional well being, and so much more!
There are many misconceptions out there about DCIS and hopefully this episode helps to bring some clarity to this type of breast cancer.
