    Cancer, Motherhood & the Choice to Rise

    Cancer, Motherhood & the Choice to Rise. In her 30s, juggling a blossoming career and an 18-month-old baby while dealing with COVID shutdowns and the death of a best friend, Amanda heard the words "stage 2 triple-positive breast cancer - 2 tumors." And into the darkness she went.  But a few weeks into her diagnosis and depression, she knew a mindset shift had to be made—for her, her daughter, and her world. Tune in to discover how she shifted from despair to finding joy, humor, and wisdom in this deeply human and relatable podcast episode featuring Amanda Gunville.  We also discuss her debut memoir and guidebook: Finding Hope & Joy in Cancer: Wisdom for Patients, Caregivers, Family & Friends. Part memoir, part guidebook, and part pep talk. It offers an honest, uplifting, and empowering look at navigating life after a cancer diagnosis. You can buy it here and download her free patient care guidebook, filled with small joys that make a big difference!   Ready to discover hope and joy in unexpected places? Listen to this podcast episode! P.S. Mindset shifts paired with Probiotic Support are a match made in healing heaven because probiotics lead to a strong gut that produces the serotonin (your happy hormone) needed to keep moving forward. Your gut microbiome can also influence how well chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and immunotherapy work. So make sure to give it the fuel it needs through our Probiotic Support supplement. To learn more surprising truths about your gut and breast cancer, please review this blog post.

  3. Tapping Into Hope & Healing with Dale Teplitz

    Tapping Into Hope & Healing with Dale Teplitz

    "I felt like Humpty Dumpty on the wall in the nursery rhyme that fell down and broke into a hundred pieces. No matter what they did, no well-meaning doctor could put me back together again. I had seen so many practitioners, and nothing helped; I wasted a lot of money and effort."  Chances are, you can relate to Dale Teplitz's story of Hope and Healing. We have all been there. But then one day, Dale found a practitioner who took a dramatically different approach. She invited Dale to use Emotional Freedom Technique (Tapping) while focusing on a past traumatic event that occurred right before her illness, which caused chronic pain, fatigue, and hopelessness. Days later, she woke up feeling well, happy, and at peace.  Dale has turned her pain into passion and has spent the last 30 years coaching healthcare professionals and people on a healing journey about harnessing the power of EFT for optimal mind and body health.  Tune in to hear fascinating stories about the unique ways people use EFT—from golfers sinking a tournament-winning putt to overcoming food cravings, and managing stress related to a cancer diagnosis.  You've always got your fingertips with you, and EFT is a free and practical way to harness your body's innate ability to heal. For more support, download her free EFT For Self-Care Tutorial and read our latest blog post on using EFT to Tone Your Vagus Nerve.  Lastly, as we always say, "One thing didn't cause the cancer, and one thing won't heal it." EFT can be a powerful part of your healing journey, and it works even better when paired with Hi-Po Fish Oil (Omega-3) capsule, so your brain has the nourishment it needs to thrive.

  4. The Surprising Truth About Toxins and Hormones

    The Surprising Truth About Toxins and Hormones

    Toxins and Hormones. Could your cleaning spray be connected with infertility or even breast cancer?  Yes.  Toxins in your home could be the culprit for what is causing hormonal problems. Hormonal problems are often a root cause of infertility, cancer, autoimmune diseases, and oh-so-many issues that especially women face, often in silence.  For these reasons, and dozens more, we invited Dr. Aumatma Simmons to the podcast. She is a Naturopathic Doctor who is board-certified in Naturopathic Endocrinology. She has truly transformed the way we think about our hormones and health. In this episode, she explains how environmental toxins disrupt hormones, why estrogen metabolism matters for breast health, and how supporting methylation and liver detox pathways plays a critical role in clearing hormones effectively. To support these pathways, many women benefit from targeted nutrients like those found in Methyl Support, which helps fuel phase-2 detoxification and healthy estrogen metabolism—two key themes discussed throughout the conversation. Tune in for a fascinating episode that may finally answer your hormone-related questions. Then, download her Diva's Detox Guide so you no longer have to blindly ask Google which products to buy or avoid.

    The Lotus Journey: Turning Breast Cancer into Empowerment

    "I sat my parents down and said I need your support no matter what. If I tell you, I need to heal by standing upside down, and I want you to say 'That's great, we support you.'' We first learned about breast cancer thriver and transformational coach Veronika Bubenickova's vision for The Lotus Journey. Her message immediately resonated with us. She speaks of embracing a fuller, more empowered life. One rooted in strength rather than fear—and her story captivated our hearts. We knew we had to have her on the podcast. In this 30-minute episode, you'll hear honest mindset shifts. Real talk about those inevitable meltdowns (yes, they're normal), and unapologetically practical ways to unlock your inner strength. All while gaining support from loved ones. She also dives into many aspects of the 7 Essentials System®, such as energy healing, reducing toxic exposure, and how she used creative therapies to elevate her chemo journey.  For additional support, please download Veronika's free guide that includes 100+ questions to ask your medical team and find her on Instagram and Facebook.  Breast cancer can be a gift; listen, learn, absorb, and discover what gift you may be receiving from this journey.

    On To Blue: Turning Grief Into a Legacy of Hope

    "Dad, I want you to tell my story to as many people as possible, so women can detect their cancer early and not go through what I have." Keesha, who passed away at a tragically young age of 34, told her father.  Her father, Bob Furniss, who joined us for this episode, has gone above and beyond with her request. He wrote a book: On To Blue: The Story of a Breast Cancer Warrior Through the Eyes of a Dad (learn more here), started an early detection nonprofit for younger (WarriorPrincess.org), and is sharing his daughter's fierce fighting spirit and sage wisdom with you today!   Here on this podcast, we know the stories we tell have power. We believe that knowing your body and acting early are so critical in healing breast cancer that it is Essential #7 in Dr. V's  7 Essentials System®. Too many lives have been forever altered by silent symptoms, delayed exams, or the assumption that "it can't happen to me." But it did happen—and so we speak it, write about it, (Click here to review our post on early-onset cancer), and turn pain into passion. Together, let's explore how to listen to our bodies, advocate for our health, and encourage those around us. Bring a tissue box, because this one is personal and deeply moving.
