Cancer Cured Me

In this episode of Cancer Cured Me, I’m talking about love, but not in the smoochy, romantic sense. This is about the kind of love you feel in your whole body, the collective, all-consuming, joy-filled energy that reminds you what it feels like to be fully alive. After attending Harry Styles’ record-breaking 12-night run at Wembley Stadium, I wanted to share what I experienced inside that stadium,...

In this mini episode, I’m exploring fear, not the obvious kind, but the quiet, everyday fear that keeps us small. I share what I learnt from watching my husband Jase perform stand-up at The Comedy Store, and a powerful moment I witnessed at HX26 when a woman who had always dreamed of singing found the courage to sing in front of a huge audience. This episode is about intuition, nervous system safe...

I’m also sharing the very funny s...

This is a very short solo episode to celebrate episode 80 of  Cancer Cured Me  - and I had to share this story because honestly, you could not make it up. I recorded this on 9th June 2026. That date is my husband’s birthday. It is also exactly nine years to the day since I was diagnosed with cancer. And just over a week before this anniversary, I received a message from the school where...

This is an encore episode of  Cancer Cured Me  with the incredible Lisa Johnson - global business strategist, public speaker, Sunday Times bestselling author and host of a number one podcast.

This week’s episode is a very special encore with the brilliant Georgie Shears, nervous system strategist and ICF accredited neurosomatics practitioner. I wanted to bring this conversation back because nervous system regulation is one of those things I genuinely believe we all need to understand.

This week I’m sharing a very special encore episode with the wonderful Adele Wimsett (ignore the early days production values!).

I owe Fearne Cotton an apology. Years ago, I judged her after seeing one tiny moment from the outside. But after hearing her speak so honestly about people pleasing, panic attacks, public scrutiny, losing jobs and the pressure of being liked, I saw her completely differently. In this solo episode, I talk about what Fearne’s words brought up for me, why people pleasing is often a nervous system res...

To mark Head and Neck Cancer Awareness Month, I’m joined by the incredible Vikki Feltham - a senior leader, speaker and advocate whose story is one of the most powerful conversations I’ve ever had on Cancer Cured Me . At 34, after almost five years of nosebleeds, pain and being repeatedly told it was nothing serious, Vikki was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma inside her nose. Her life-saving...
