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.

When "Incurable" Wasn't the End of the Story with Dale Atkinson
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Today's guest is Dale Atkinson, UK entrepreneur and stage IV esophageal cancer patient who refused to accept a palliative only health plan. Diagnosed on his son's first birthday, Dale dove into research and built his own evidence-based integrative strategy, combining standard treatment with complementary therapies and targeted off-label medications. His tumor and metastases have disappeared, leaving only a small amount of residual metabolic activity.
Dale uses his journey to advocate for better patient education, earlier diagnosis, and access to integrative oncology.
We talk about next-generation sequencing (so innovative), the full-time job of fighting cancer, collaborative care, this incredible cancer community, and so much more!!
