Beyond the Battlefront
The experience of Cancer is a challenging one, but it’s not every day that we hear the lighter side. This podcast will dive into the highs and lows of both first and second-hand Cancer experiences. We will speak with a wide range of guests: doctors, patients, family-members, researchers and - most often forgotten - the caregivers, all while exploring what’s beyond the infamous battlefront. Your host is Noor Hassan, a High School Junior, Volleyball player, Dog-mom, and Cancer-Survivor who has been striving for health-advocacy and awareness surrounding the psychological aspects of cancer side-effects since she was diagnosed at age 4. Episodes are unscripted and will generally be released twice a month on all podcast platforms.
