Drawing on history and research, we explore why cancer can still be shrouded in fear, blame, and misunderstanding. We go beyond the statistics to reveal the emotional and psychological toll of living with cancer stigma, from social isolation and anxiety to delayed care. We tackle the tough topics—like the unique stigma of lung cancer and other diseases associated with lifestyle choices—and instead celebrate the resilience, empowerment, and hope of cancer survivors. Join us as we reclaim the narrative, offering powerful insights and practical advice for both those diagnosed and the communities that support them. This podcast is a liberating space where your identity is celebrated, and you are seen as more than just a patient. Support the show Get show notes and resources at our website: every1dies.org .
