• 14: These Habit Hacks Will Transform Your Health in 2026
    Jan 13 2026

    Comment on my YouTube and share with me one thing you're working on for the new year!


    You don’t need another resolution. You need a system your body can actually stick with.


    Let's see New Year’s resolutions through a cancer-conscious health lens. Why do most goals fail? It’s not because of laziness or lack of discipline, but rather because they’re built on motivation instead of systems.


    In this episode, I share practical tools for creating sustainable habits, letting go of all-or-nothing thinking, honoring your nervous system, and why healing after cancer (or any major health challenge) requires consistency over perfection.


    If you’re focused on cancer prevention, rebuilding trust with your body, or creating routines that lower inflammation, balance blood sugar, and support long-term vitality, this episode is for you.

    You don’t need a total overhaul. You need a foundation that works, one habit at a time.


    You’ll Learn:


    [00:00] Introduction

    [03:02] The cancer survivor's unique relationship with new beginnings and planning for the future

    [05:21] Why most resolutions fail and what they should actually represent

    [09:03] Using January as an observation period rather than forcing commitment to goals

    [11:59] The comprehensive framework for making habits stick long-term

    [28:11] Why missing a day doesn't mean failure

    [31:12] How to identify what to focus on by asking yourself questions and observing

  • 13: Things I Refuse to Stay Quiet About As a Cancer Survivor
    Jan 6 2026

    Share this with anyone who has been touched by cancer.


    What happens when the cancer treatment ends, but the real fight is just beginning?


    I learned the hardest way that beating cancer and healing from it are two completely different things. Today, I break the silence on what no one tells you after treatment: the missing exit plan, the fear that gets louder, and the lifestyle shifts that could change everything.


    Most survivors report long-term side effects, yet structured support is nearly nonexistent. The system saves your life but leaves you to figure out recovery alone, no nutrition guidance, no detox strategy, no roadmap for prevention.


    You’ll Learn:


    [00:00] Introduction

    [03:52] Why there's no exit plan after cancer treatment ends

    [05:17] The dangerous gap in nutritional education for cancer survivors

    [06:56] What no one tells you about environmental toxins during and after treatment

    [08:02] The emotional aftermath that's lonelier than the diagnosis itself

    [08:25] Why prevention through lifestyle changes is the missing conversation in cancer care

  • 12: These 3 Foods Can Repair Your Body After Cancer (& Also Prevent It)
    Dec 22 2025

    ​​Comment below this episode on YouTube and let me know which foods you are committing to adding to your diet this week!


    Most cancer survivors focus on what to avoid, but almost no one talks about what you must rebuild first.

    

    In this episode, I’m sharing three foundational foods I believe every cancer survivor and cancer-conscious human should be intentionally adding to their diet. These aren’t trendy superfoods or expensive supplements. They’re everyday foods that directly support your immune system, hormones, metabolism, and gut, the systems that matter most after treatment and for long-term cancer prevention.


    As an eight-year non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma survivor, I know firsthand that life after cancer isn’t just about survival. It’s about rebuilding an internal environment where your body feels stable, nourished, and supported. Here, I break down why protein intake after cancer is often misunderstood, how blood sugar balance impacts cravings and energy, and why prioritizing nutrition for cancer recovery can shift how you feel day to day.


    If you’re navigating life after treatment, or you’re proactively thinking about foods to prevent cancer, this episode offers grounded, science-backed clarity without fear or overwhelm. Grab a pen. This is one you’ll want to revisit.


    You’ll Learn:


    [00:00] Introduction

    [01:57] The most overlooked food in cancer recovery and prevention

    [03:59] How much protein cancer survivors actually need per meal to see real changes

    [04:24] The dramatic shifts that happen when cancer survivors increase quality protein intake

    [06:14] Chemotherapy and radiation devastate your gut microbiome

    [08:33] Which fermented foods repair your gut and why prebiotics are essential

    [10:41] How fiber functions as a cancer prevention tool through daily elimination

    [12:45] Why eating 30 different plants per week creates a thriving gut microbiome

  • 10: The Anti-Cancer Breakfast that Rebuilds Your Body
    Dec 9 2025

    If you’re enjoying the podcast, make sure to subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with someone who could use this information.


    What if your first meal could quietly tip the scales away from cancer?


    Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a simple breakfast that helps lower inflammation while keeping blood sugar steady? Good news. There is! It's the same combination of real, unprocessed ingredients I've eaten for years because it helped me rebuild my body and support remission. Instead of chasing trends, I lean on what the research shows actually protects my cells.


    Most people start the day with something fast that secretly spikes blood sugar, stirs up inflammation, and leaves hormones scrambling to keep up. This episode zooms in on how a different kind of breakfast can signal safety, calm your stress response, and feed the systems that keep cell damage in check without relying on anything ultra-processed. Pairing certain nutrients together turns one ordinary meal into a daily prevention strategy instead of just another rush-through-it bite.


    You’ll Learn:


    [00:00] Introduction

    [02:32] Why breakfast becomes a daily opportunity for cancer prevention

    [03:46] The nutrient-dense power of pasture-raised eggs

    [04:36] How wild-caught salmon transforms the inflammatory environment around your cells

    [05:22] What my daily ‘secret weapon’ is

    [06:58] The gut-healing impact of coconut kefir paired with antioxidant-rich fruits

    [07:22] The cellular benefits of berries, pomegranates, and kiwi

    [08:34] How this breakfast stabilizes blood sugar, lowers inflammation, and fuels detox pathways

  • 9: These 10 Foods Kill Cancer Cells
    Dec 2 2025

    Share this episode with someone who is ready to start living a cancer preventative lifestyle.


    What if the thing you put on your plate today could change the entire environment inside your body?


    Food carries so much power in shaping what your body can and can’t do, and the best part is—it’s all in your control. After cancer, I realized my doctors weren’t guiding me on how to support myself through nutrition, so I had to figure it out on my own. That journey taught me that food isn’t just fuel. It’s information that influences how your body repairs, protects, and responds to stress. It’s what your new cells are created from. You are what you eat.


    The real issue is how easy it is to forget what real food actually does when the world is filled with enticing, processed distractions. Small shifts can completely change the terrain your cells live in, and it doesn’t need to be over complicated. Simply adding in specific foods does a world of good for your body, even if you don’t change anything else.


    You’ll Learn:


    [00:00] Introduction

    [01:35] The real reason understanding your "why" changes your choices

    [02:51] What makes broccoli sprouts uniquely powerful

    [03:47] How green tea compounds influence cancer cell behavior

    [05:00] What happens when garlic is crushed and left to rest before cooking

    [05:26] The surprising impact of berries on tumor growth

    [06:37] 2 specific ingredients that boost turmeric beneficial effects

    [07:05] How medicinal mushrooms support immune surveillance

    [08:04] Why leafy greens play a role in recurrence risk

    [09:09] What makes cooked tomatoes especially effective

    [09:51] How flax and basil seeds influence hormone balance

    [10:35] Why cruciferous vegetables support detox and cell regulation

  • 8: The Mindset That Gets You Through Cancer | Tonya Agostino
    Nov 25 2025

    Share this episode with someone you know who's been touched by cancer.


    What if the moment that nearly broke you was actually the thing trying to wake you up?


    In this episode, I sit down with Tonya Agostino, the founder of Unstoppable Joy and a survivor of triple-negative breast cancer. Her background in legal work and running a restaurant shaped the way she rebuilt her life after hearing the words no one wants to hear. She speaks openly about the moments that nearly took her out and the unexpected turning point that shifted everything.


    The conversation digs into what it’s like when your world becomes appointments, tests, fear, and survival, and why the real battle often starts long before treatment does. Choices get murky when you’re sick, scared, and exhausted, and clarity doesn’t come easy when you’re stuck in fight-or-flight. There’s a way through, but it’s usually not the one you think it is.


    Sometimes… the smartest move is giving your body what it already needs.


    You’ll Learn:


    [00:00:00] Introduction

    [00:06:48] Cortisol levels can reveal underlying issues when doctors miss symptoms

    [00:14:38] Why fight-or-flight mode blocks healing during treatment

    [00:15:08] Why survivors need more support after ringing the bell

    [00:17:44] The heartbreaking choice to stop chemo due to trauma

    [00:24:27] What happened during a four-hour sound therapy session

    [00:36:14] How a doctor's words during diagnosis can be life or death

    [00:48:18] The surprising lack of a healing roadmap after treatment ends

    [01:22:56] Why cancer can be the life-altering jolt toward your true path

  • 7: 5 Things Doctors Don't Tell You After Cancer (But I Wish They Did)
    Nov 18 2025

    Share this episode with someone who's been through cancer.


    Nobody tells you what happens after the cancer bell rings.


    In this episode, I’m sharing what I wish someone had told me about life after cancer, the messy middle between being declared “cancer-free” and actually feeling alive again. As an eight-year non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma survivor, a mom, and an integrative nutrition health coach, I’ve lived through the part that no one prepares you for: rebuilding your body, calming your nervous system, and learning how to trust life again.


    The truth is, healing doesn’t end when treatment does. It’s when the real work begins, navigating the anxiety, the grief, and the strange quiet that follows survival. There’s no roadmap for this part, but there should be. And you’ll see why real recovery starts long after the scans come back clear.


    You’ll Learn:


    [00:00] Introduction

    [03:36] Why there’s little to no aftercare after cancer, and what survivors really need

    [07:05] The truth about nutrition after treatment and how food can rebuild your cells

    [09:18] How to know if you’re stuck in fight-or-flight mode and what helps you shift out

    [15:44] Why emotions hit harder years after treatment ends, and how to process them safely

    [20:17] The healing tools that make emotional recovery possible, from therapy to journaling

    [24:43] What “scanxiety” really is and how to manage the physical and emotional triggers

    [28:54] The mindset shift that rewires fear into hope before every scan

    [29:48] Why healing after cancer isn’t linear, and how to stay resilient through setbacks
