Radical Remission Project ”Stories That Heal” Podcast

Vanessa Lukes - Colon Cancer Thriver

At the age of 30, Vanessa had surgery to remove cancer from her small intestine. She had a deep sense that this was a wake-up call and there was something to learn. Soon she came across Qigong, and started learning and practicing this ancient Chinese moving meditation. She began to feel the Qi (life force/energy) moving through her body and experienced a deep sense of calm, which helped her handle her diagnosis with more ease. Vanessa believes this practice works on the whole of her life to improve the health of her body, mind and Qi. She now teaches Qigong and continues to practice every day. Vanessa has now been free of cancer for 20 years.

Factors In Action - Grief, Social Support and Releasing Suppressed Emotions

Are you experiencing grief from your diagnosis? Do your loved ones feel supportive or do they avoid the tough emotional conversations? Tune-in as Liz shares how grief is an emotion that can come with a diagnosis and how to keep your social support system strong enough to help you through it.
The radical remission research shows us that feeling and releasing difficult emotions is important to our health. Some ways to work through big emotions like grief include journaling, talking with a trusted friend, meditation, sitting in quiet reflection, and if needed seek out a therapist - find your best way to allow the emotions to be felt, acknowledged, and then processed so they can leave your body.

Factors In Action: Empowerment with a New Diagnosis

This season on the podcast, co-hosts Liz and Karla will be sharing mini episodes each Monday to highlight important topics for a healing journey. These Factors In Action episodes will share insightful ways that you can bring the healing factors into your life.
This Week - Empowerment with a New Diagnosis
Start from an Empowered Place. First, take a deep breath. Determine if you are in an emotional emergency or a physical emergency. Many cancers have been growing for some time and therefore are not a physical emergency. Most of us have time to research, get second opinions, and make informed decisions.
Tell your doctor you do not want to hear the “prognosis” or the statistics. You are not a number and should insist from the start on being treated like an individual not as a number or diagnosis. The statistics and prognosis will not help you and may only upset you more. No one, not even the smartest doctor, can possibly know YOUR outcome. There are so many stories of people who have outlived the prognosis! You can be one of them!

Katherine Froggatt - Overcoming Breast Cancer

In 2016, Katherine was diagnosed with breast cancer. Shocked and having young kids at the time, she followed a conventional path with the public healthcare system in New Zealand which included a full mastectomy, chemotherapy, radiation and hormonal therapy. During her treatment, she took it upon herself to eliminate all sugar, ultra processed foods, refined carbohydrates & alcohol. She gradually eliminated gluten and dairy to lower her inflammation and improve her gut health. She then started to meditate and also restarted her knitting hobby during her treatments as a form of therapy. Katherine connected with other cancer survivors which helped her navigate the intense anxiety of her diagnosis. Today Katherine helps women who struggle with burnout, addictive behaviors and those living with chronic illness to build mental fitness and navigate the emotional trauma to feel empowered and confident.
