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.

From Caregiver to Patient - What It's Like to Experience Both with Renee Coolbaugh
Today's guest is Renee Coshin Coolbaugh, lifelong northeastern US resider, currently calling Baltimore her home, cat lover (did you know a group of cats is called a clowder?), caregiver to her husband Peter through is journey with Multiple Myeloma, and endometrial and ovarian cancer survivor. To say she's a multitasker is an understatement.
We spend a lot of time talking about the caregiver and patient experience and what it has been like to be in both roles. We also talk about genetic testing, gratitude, synchronous cancers, self-care, and so much more.
