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.

Running Past the Prognosis: One Man's Journey Beyond Stage 4 with Kevin Webber
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
When Kevin Webber was just 49 years old, he received devastating news: he had stage 4 prostate cancer and might have only two years to live.
For many people, such a diagnosis could lead to fear, despair, and hopelessness. But Kevin made a different choice. Rather than allowing his prognosis to define him, he decided to use his diagnosis as a force for good—for his family, his friends, and anyone facing difficult circumstances.
In this inspiring episode of The Many Faces of Cancer, Kevin shares how he transformed from an occasional runner into an ultramarathon athlete, completing races across some of the most challenging environments on Earth. From the deserts to the jungles, from temperatures of -40°C to +50°C, Kevin has pushed the limits of what he once thought possible.
But this conversation is about far more than running.
It is about purpose. It is about perspective. It is about refusing to let statistics determine how you live your life.
Kevin reminds us that while we may not always control what happens to us, we can choose how we respond. His journey offers hope, motivation, and a powerful challenge to all of us: to make the most of every day we are given.
