“Health happens at home, and it happens with the decisions that you make every single day.” - Dr. Jenn Simmons

Cancer doesn't come out of nowhere. An increasing number of factors in our everyday environment contribute to cancer and many other chronic diseases. Unfortunately, changing our habits and eliminating these factors can feel so overwhelming to people that it stops them from getting the best possible care.

That’s where a health coach’s skills can be especially beneficial. Most types of cancers are metabolic diseases, and as health coaches, we can teach people how to be metabolically healthy. There's so much that we can do to help people lower their risk of cancer and improve outcomes for those diagnosed with cancer or who have been through conventional recovery. Healing complex chronic illnesses doesn't happen quickly but over the course of collaborative and integrative therapeutic relationships.

To explore more about what that support can look like, I’m joined by Dr. Jenn Simmons, who transitioned from breast surgeon to integrative oncologist to better empower her patients to take care of their health. Dr. Jenn believes that if people could shift their thinking to view their cancer as an opportunity to restore health and wellness, we would be much better off.

In this conversation, Dr. Jenn and I discuss her cancer journey, why we need to focus on addressing the underlying causes rather than just managing symptoms, the importance of a holistic approach to cancer care, the role of the immune system, the impact of environmental toxins, the need for supportive relationships, how health coaches can make a vital contribution to a healthcare team, and more.

Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!
