The Cancer Pod: Integrative Medicine Talk

Cancer treatment and recovery bring complicated decisions, unpredictable side effects, and questions no one prepared you for. The Cancer Pod is an integrative oncology podcast that bridges conventional cancer care with evidence-based complementary approaches, giving patients, survivors, caregivers, and family members practical tools and honest answers, with a touch of humor to make the hard stuff less scary.

I’m Leah Sherman, ND, RYT, an integrative practitioner and breast cancer survivor with years of clinical experience working in cancer centers supporting patients through treatment and survivorship. Each episode covers a different aspect of integrative care, whether discussing the management of treatment side effects, helping navigate cancer survivorship, and separating the science from wellness-industry noise. You’ll hear expert interviews, practical strategies addressing supplements and nutrition, and real conversations with #cancerinsiders—people who have turned their own diagnosis into advocacy and support for others.

No matter where you are on the cancer continuum—newly diagnosed, mid-treatment, living with cancer or well into survivorship—The Cancer Pod gives you the evidence, tools, and community to move forward with clarity and confidence.
