Thrive Through Cancer

Grief is seldom discussed openly in our culture, and the death of a child makes people feel even more uncomfortable. In this week’s episode I feel honored to introduce to you my friend, Melissa who transformed her profound grief into an extraordinary force for good. Despite experiencing the unimaginable loss of her child, she found the strength to channel her sorrow into a source of power and inspiration. Join us as we explore how she turned her grief into her superpower, touching the lives of countless others along the way. Our talk is filled with hope, and I know this conversation will bless you as much as it did me!   Links: Melissa Dlugolecki: Website  Instagram Podcast Thrive Through Cancer Formula Program:            https://www.yourthriveformula.com/ Season’s Supplement Shop- https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/seasonjohnson/store-start

The definition of medicine is 'the field of applied science related to the art of healing by diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disease.' It encompasses a variety of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by preventing and treating illness in human beings. However, the influence of pharmaceutical companies in medical education has led to the acceptance of the 'cut, burn, and poison' mentality. Consequently, the conventional approach to addressing the underlying causes of health issues has been overshadowed. In today’s episode, I discuss why your doctor may not support natural remedies and address your nutrition questions during and after your cancer diagnosis.   TTCF Program: https://www.yourthriveformula.com/  

Discovering that your child has cancer can be overwhelming. It's natural to experience a range of emotions, including disbelief, fear, and anger. Once you've had some time to absorb the news, you'll want to develop an action plan. In today's podcast, I answer a question I receive almost daily: "Where should I begin to help my child thrive through cancer?" I share the crucial role nutrition plays in preventing, treating and recovering from cancer. Additionally, I delve into three essential things to eliminate from your home to prevent and treat cancer.

Hormone imbalances are epidemic these days, but being a woman doesn't mean you have to live with these symptoms. Contrary to conventional medicine, suffering related to menstrual cycles is unnecessary. While conventional medicine often suggests that women are destined to endure reproductive issues, the reality is quite different. There are numerous steps you can take to address hormonal imbalances. In today's episode, I cover: Practical steps to balance hormones with nutrition Prevention and treatment of cysts Blood sugar support Adrenal support           And more!

 On today’s podcast, I had the honor of interviewing Bethany, the Founder of Primally Pure. Bethany and I met several years ago at a health conference, and not only have I loved getting to know her and her family personally, but I’ve also enjoyed witnessing the journey, birth, and incredible growth of her beauty and skincare business. Her products are of the same high quality as she is as a person, and I'm confident that you will enjoy learning from her expertise on the topic of Botox!   Let's address the elephant in the room. We're all talking about it, and if you're not, you may have been curious about it at some point in your skincare journey. In today's interview with skincare expert Bethany McDaniel, we cover: What exactly is Botox and how does it work? The lingering effects of Botox after discontinuation Firsthand experiences of Bethany's customers and followers with Botox Natural alternatives to Botox Taking a holistic approach to anti-aging             And more! -Primally Pure Website:  bit.ly/primallypurewithseason 10% off Discount Code: SEASONJOHNSON10   -Season’s Before and After Photos   -Episode 12- Dirty Secrets You Need to Know About the Skincare Industry with guest Bethany McDaniel  

In this week's podcast I get vulnerable sharing a hard but important lesson I have learned and continue to work every day. Emotional Honesty. When our children witness us expressing our emotions, they can understand that their own feelings are natural and acceptable, and that they too can express and discuss them.    Today, I want to share with you the value in being present with your children, understanding their emotions, and expressing their own struggles so you can heal together.  

I'm thrilled about this unique Q&A episode! I truly enjoy interacting with all of you.   In today's episode, I address all the burning questions you submitted through IG. I cover topics regarding my personal morning supplement routine, recommendations for a parasite cleanse, advice after a gallbladder removal, and more.    Got questions of your own?

Emotions are a powerful and gracious gift to every man and woman created in the image of God. Emotions add pleasure, comfort, and richness to events and relationships. But suppressed feelings don’t evaporate; they eventually burst out and wreak havoc in our lives. On this week’s episode, I am thrilled to have Dr. Antonio Jimenez, MD, ND as our special guest. Dr. Jimenez dives deep into the importance of emotional and mental healing to overcome a cancer diagnosis. He shares the profound impact of emotional and spiritual well-being on the body’s response to treatment. Dr. Jimenez offers helpful tools, highlighting the importance of healing from past traumas that contribute to disease.   Links: Hope4Cancer Website https://hope4cancer.com/ Hope4Cancer Book-7 Principles to Remove Fear and Empower Your Healing https://hope4cancer.com/how-we-treat-cancer/the-hope-for-cancer-book/

The father of modern medicine Hippocrates said it best, “All Disease Begins In the Gut.”    On this week’s episode, I am thrilled to have Kristen Blake, as our special guest. Kristen dives deep into how leaky gut can cause myriad health issues from headaches to skin related issues to IBS and more. Kristen shares how certain symptoms might not be directly related to the gut but can cause issues that lead to autoimmune disease and other health concerns. Many do not recognize or know that digestive problems wreak havoc in the entire body, leading to allergies, arthritis, autoimmune disease, rashes, acne, chronic fatigue, mood disorders, autism, dementia, cancer, and more. Having a healthy gut means more than simply being free of annoyances like bloating or heartburn. It is absolutely central to your health. It is connected to everything that happens in your body.    Links: Heal from Within Private Coaching:  https://www.kristenblakewellness.com/healfromwithin2023  IBS Reset Program: https://www.kristenblakewellness.com/the-kb-code 12 Week Program - The KB Code: https://www.kristenblakewellness.com/the-kb-code The Testing Package for GI Map Tests and Interpretation: https://kristenblakewellness.practicebetter.io/#/5ddb010a2a982310345e625f/bookings?p=63d43034f36a14dd25bf6828 Kristen Blake Wellness Instagram https://www.instagram.com/kristenblakewellness  

Last week, I attended a special event with my daughter, while my husband and son faced a living nightmare back home. This is the reality when you have a child in remission. Just one scare can bring back overwhelming emotions. This week we are especially thankful for our health. In today's episode, you'll hear about the ups and downs of our week, alongside me answering questions live on Instagram Live.

One of the only long term side effects my son has experienced post conventional cancer treatment was cavities. As I did more research I realized this is fairly common with kids who receive chemotherapy and radiation. I invited my friend, Lauren Dahl, founder of the company Wonder Oral Wellness, and real health advocate, to share with us natural ways to help prevent and in some cases reverse issues such as cavities and even gum recession.    We cover everything from raw milk to fluoride and a toothpowder that can work miracles! Make sure to go give Lauren a follow on Instagram @shilohfarm1906!   I truly believe that food is medicine, and this episode will empower you to learn and take proactive steps toward healing and healthier living.

You may be hesitant to listen to a podcast about Sabbath rest, possibly even assuming that it’s going to be filled with rules, religiousness and guilt. But actually, I pray you find it’s quite the opposite. In fact, I think that if you truly implement this practice in 2024, you’ll see every aspect of your life benefit and realize it has nothing to do with rules, religion or guilt, but rather everything to do with freedom and spiritual wholeness.  In today’s episode I share the why behind taking a Sabbath rest, how to know if you need it, how our family practices this weekly and the benefits we’ve experienced.

Let’s talk about nutrition and some foods that have incredible detoxification nutrients and can help to protect your healthy cells from being damaged during chemotherapy!   More specifically, I share nine foods that I recommend to support your body's ability to detoxify. Most of them can either be easily grown at your home or purchased at your local grocery store. Plus, I explain the role, benefits, and some of the research of each food. And I provide you with some specific suggestions on how you can prepare them and incorporate them into your daily meals.   I truly believe that food is medicine, and this episode will empower you to learn and take proactive steps toward healing and healthier living.

What if there was a way to help educate your immune system to take out invaders and to stop threats the way it was supposed to? In the cancer world, this is actually the number one goal, and it’s why I’m so excited to share this episode with you!   I recently invited two special guests, Dana and Lori, to educate our Thrive Through Cancer Formula Members on a phenomenal product, Transfer Factor, and I want to share it with you today.

One of the most powerful healing tools that God created and that’s often overlooked is touch!  In fact, using your hands to physically connect with others can help the person transition into the parasympathetic state and activate healing in such a quick and life-giving way.    On today’s episode, I’m thrilled to have Dr. Charles Penick back as a special guest. He not only explains the science behind touch, but you’re going to love all of the practical tips, suggestions, and techniques that he provides. As he shared, you don’t have to be at the mercy of what happens to you, and you have amazing capabilities that God has created within you! So, in this episode…let’s remember what those capabilities include and begin to apply them to help our loved ones heal with intentional and therapeutic touch.

As we step into a new year, do you find yourself taking inventory of the past year and feeling excited about the new year? I do…and even feel a restless excitement! However, I also know many don’t feel this way. Some may even be fearful of setting goals or listing out any expectations for the new year. So, in today’s episode, I want to talk about why I think this happens and the importance of knowing your identity and having clarity on what you’re called to do. Honestly, I think this conversation could help set up your 2024 on a completely different level!   Links: Episode 65: Should You Set Goals for Your Healing?

I’m super excited to introduce you to something that's REALLY special to me, The KICKcancER Movement. My non-profit organization was the answer to a lot of prayers.

On December 4th, 2013, my son was diagnosed with cancer…ten years ago! And every year at this time, my husband and I are filled with a mixed bag of emotions.    So as I once again reflect about our experiences, particularly in the context of the holiday season and all the gatherings, I discuss in today’s episode about the power of your thoughts and the consequences of when fear overtakes your mind. I also give you some intentional questions to ask yourself and others to help you navigate the holiday gatherings, and some encouragement in how you can live during this season of your life with hope and amongst community!   I pray that this episode will empower you to have a more peaceful and hope-filled holiday season!   Links: Thrive Through Cancer Formula Masterclass Registration: bit.ly/yourthriveformula The KICKcancER Movement Text “KICKCANCER” to 53555 to give.
