Just Diagnosed
Life can change in an instant. For Steve McCabe, a stage 4 liver cancer diagnosis was that moment. Hosted by Steve and produced by his daughter, Kati, Just Diagnosed is an honest, raw, and uplifting podcast exploring life after a life-changing diagnosis.
In each episode, Steve shares his personal journey — navigating treatment plans, embracing family moments, managing Type 2 diabetes, and finding light in the darkest times. With wisdom shaped by years of entrepreneurship and a passion for helping others, Steve brings both vulnerability and humor to every conversation.
As the podcast unfolds, Steve will welcome guests to share their own diagnosis stories, offering insight into their experiences with the healthcare system, grief, resilience, and hope. Plus, every episode promises a fun, lighthearted end to remind us all of the joy in small moments.
Just Diagnosed isn’t just about illness — it’s about living fully, loving deeply, and finding purpose in every chapter.
Join Steve and Kati for real conversations, heartfelt stories, and a reminder that even in uncertainty, there’s always room for hope.
Tune in, lean in, and let’s navigate this journey together.
