Using research-backed whole-body support, I help women lower cancer recurrence risk & feel great.

You know you don’t want to leave your health to chance.
You know you want to do everything you can to keep cancer from coming back.
And you know you need a clear, focused plan—not just “eat healthier” or “reduce stress.”

The problem?
There’s so much advice out there… and most of it is generic.
You end up wondering:
👉 Am I actually making the right changes for me?
👉 How do I even know if what I’m doing is working?

That’s where blood work comes in.
Not the “everything looks normal” kind of blood work.
I’m talking about the kind that shows you—plain and simple—where your body is strong, where it’s vulnerable, and which steps will have the biggest impact for you.

In my Blood Work Clarity LIVE Bootcamp for Cancer Survivors, you’ll learn:
🩸 Which labs matter most for recurrence prevention
🩸 The optimal ranges that really protect your health
🩸 How to read your results (even if you’re not a doctor)
🩸 Specific strategies to bring your numbers into a cancer-blocking range

No more guesswork. No more hoping your efforts are “enough.”

Just clear answers and the confidence to take action.

🎙️ PODCAST: “STOP Killing Cancer Cells - You’re Wasting Your Efforts. Do This Instead”

Most post-cancer advice focuses on killing any remaining cancer cells.

But here’s the truth: if you’re NED (no evidence of disease), there shouldn’t be many cancer cells to kill.

The real magic happens when you focus on something far more powerful—changing the environment inside your body so cancer simply doesn’t want to grow there in the first place.

In my latest podcast episode, I’m breaking down exactly how your body’s “internal environment” can encourage or discourage pro-cancer processes.

We’ll talk about:
🎙️ How blood sugar balance impacts cancer signaling
🎙️ Why environmental contaminants can tilt the scales toward inflammation and damage
🎙️ The surprising role of viruses in cancer vulnerability
🎙️ How hormones can fuel or frustrate cancer cell activity
🎙️ The deep connection between gut health and immune function
🎙️ And how all of these factors weave together to influence whether your body is an easy target… or a fortress

I’ll also explain why the popular “alkaline vs. acidic” theory is outdated science (sorry, alkaline diet fans!) and what actually works instead.

Plus, we’ll get into cancer stem cells—the stealthy survivors of cancer treatment that can be reactivated in the wrong environment, and how to keep them dormant.

If you’ve ever wondered what really keeps cancer from coming back, this episode is your blueprint.

✨ P.S. Tomorrow is the start of the Blood Work Clarity Live Bootcamp for cancer survivors! If you haven’t signed up yet, now’s the time—because it’s the fastest way to use your own labs to figure out what’s actually going on inside your body and how to adjust the environment so that it helps you to keep cancer from growing or coming back www.FlourishAfterCancer.com/bootcamp ($47)

Most survivors have no idea their CBC is holding this kind of insight.

The Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) is a simple, underused marker that can reveal how your immune system is functioning right now.

We’re not aiming for “normal”—we’re aiming for optimal, and that’s what I’ll teach you in the Blood Work Clarity LIVE Bootcamp For Cancer Survivors.

📅 Sept 11, 12, 15 & 16 (limited time replays available to all who sign up)

If any of these 4 labs are HIGH after cancer…your body might be sending you an urgent “we need to talk” signal.

📈 ALP (Alkaline Phosphatase) – Can hint at liver or bone stress, which may need attention for both recovery and recurrence prevention.

📈 Ferritin – More than just an iron marker. High ferritin can also be a sign of hidden inflammation that fuels cancer growth.

📈 Fasting Insulin – Elevated insulin is one of the strongest drivers of cancer cell growth. Keeping it in check is essential for long-term health.

📈 CRP (C-Reactive Protein) – A key inflammation marker. If it’s high, it means your body may be in a chronic pro-cancer state.

Most oncologists don’t monitor these…but in holistic cancer recovery, we act before they become a big problem.

💡 In my upcoming Blood Work Clarity LIVE Bootcamp for Cancer Survivors, I’ll teach you what to order, what it means, and how to take action when something’s off — so you can reduce recurrence risk and feel your best.

You’ve had dozens of blood tests since your diagnosis…

But here’s the truth:

Most survivors have never been shown how to actually read their results to see if their body is protecting them—or putting them at higher risk for cancer coming back.

That changes this September.

In my Blood Work Clarity LIVE Bootcamp, I’ll teach you:

🩸 Which blood work to ask for (and how to get it ordered)
🩸 The optimal ranges for cancer recovery (not just the “normal” box on your printout)
🩸 How to interpret your results—even if you’re not a doctor
🩸 Simple nutrition + supplement strategies to move your numbers in the right direction

This isn’t about fear—it’s about strategy.

You’ll walk away with clear, actionable steps so you can use your labs to take the guesswork out of your recovery and protect your future.

🎙️ PODCAST: “The Missing Parts of Cancer Recurrence Prevention”

Ever feel like you’ve been taking the same supplements for months—or even years—without really knowing if they’re still helping you?

You’re not alone… and it’s a huge gap in many cancer recovery plans.

In this week’s episode of The Flourish After Cancer Podcast, we’re talking about one of the most overlooked keys to lasting recovery: testing, retesting, and actually checking in on what’s working—and what’s not.

👉 Why “set it and forget it” doesn’t work for supplements or health strategies
👉 How your needs change over time—and why doses may need adjusting
👉 Why dosing can vary dramatically from person to person
👉 The role of comprehensive, regular blood work in preventing recurrence and catching problems early

Too many women stay on the same regimen long after the original reason for it is gone—sometimes taking things that aren’t needed, while missing what their body really does need.

Your body changes. Your labs change. Your plan should, too.

AND…the same adjustments you made to support your DURING cancer are likely no longer the best ones to support you AFTER cancer.

If you want to know how to make your recurrence and recovery plan actually match your current needs…Then this is the episode you don’t want to skip.

💬 Then come back and tell me: When was the last time you actually re-evaluated your supplement plan?

There are controllable cancer recurrence risk factors hiding in your blood work — but most survivors aren’t told to look for them.

🩸 Vitamin deficiencies
Cancer treatments can leave you depleted. Low or suboptimal levels of certain vitamins can keep you exhausted, make side effects from medications like hormone blockers worse, and leave your body not working at its best to reduce recurrence risk.

🛡 Immune strength
It’s not just about your total white blood cell count. Looking at the ratios of immune cells (neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes) can tell us if your immune system is actively working for you against cancer — or if it’s struggling.

🔥 Inflammation levels
Inflammation is a known cancer starter and promoter. Tracking your inflammation over time shows if the changes you’re making are truly lowering risk — or if adjustments are needed.

🌱 Cancer growth factors
Certain growth-promoting signals can be measured in blood work. If they’re too high, it means the “soil” in your body may be more welcoming to cancer growth — and we can do something about it.

Your oncologist’s job is to get rid of cancer — not to track these subtler signs of cancer rebuilding. This is where functional medicine shines.

When you can see your cancer vulnerabilities AND your health strengths, you can take targeted steps to stay in the strongest position possible to help keep cancer from coming back with nutrition, lifestyle, and supplements changes.

📅 That’s exactly what I’m teaching in my Blood Work Clarity LIVE Bootcamp for Cancer Survivors.
