Cancer Cured Me

This is NOT a podcast about cancer - it's about living well.  It’s a reminder to celebrate life and not to wait until a big diagnosis comes along to live your best life.


On this podcast we talk about healing, manifesting and living your best life. We cover all forms of wellness, natural health and nervous system regulation. We humans have the ability to lead magnificent, enriched and fulfilling lives of our dreams but we need to create a safe environment in our bodies for these manifestations to become reality


Many of our guests have gone through and survived some form of disease, adversity or near death experience and have used that wake up call to change for the better and create an incredible life of purpose. These stories are absolutely awe inspiring and will open you up to what is possible if you make some simple changes to your daily life.


We have incredible experts sharing their vast knowledge on all aspects of wellness, disease prevention, healing modalities, manifestation, spirituality and mental health optimisation.


Meet your host: Alex (La to her friends and family) After receiving a completely unexpected cancer diagnosis in 2017 my world caved in.  But my journey through treatment and recovery also forced me to recognise many uncomfortable truths about my life.  I’d neglected myself.  I’d pushed down trauma and become a world class people pleaser in order to feel safe.  Getting ill made me realise I had to stop sweating the small stuff and make lasting changes for the better.  Quite literally, cancer cured me from all that crap, and in its own strange way, proved to be the catalyst that’s led me to an infinitely happier life.  


This podcast is my way of sharing all the learning so that YOU don't have to get cancer to realise just how great your life can be. Remember - YOU hold all the cards to achieve the life of your dreams.

Why Your Nervous System Holds the Secret to Feeling Safe and Calm

Just for our listeners, enjoy a free trial of Georgie's Nervous System Circle, REGULATE. Daily nervous system prompts and 365 days of support :Click here to join: REGULATE. Enter your free trial code: CANCERCUREDME at checkout (Full details below)


I absolutely love this conversation with nervous system strategist, Georgie Shears. Together we explore what it truly means to feel safe in your own body not conceptually, but physically. What is the elusive nervous system? What is nervous system regulation? Not only does Georgie answer these questions beautifully and more, she shares her honest, moving story of anxiety, panic attacks, postnatal depression and the pivotal moment during the pandemic that led her to discover the power of nervous system work. Her journey will resonate with anyone who has ever pushed through life on adrenaline, overridden their inner knowing or lived in a constant state of “what if”.


Across this conversation you’ll learn:

  • What the nervous system actually is beyond mindset, beyond theory
  • Why so many women live in survival mode without realising it
  • The difference between ventral vagal (safety), sympathetic (fight/flight), and dorsal vagal (freeze)
  • How your upbringing, past experiences and old protective patterns create your current responses
  • Why your body “borrows” energy from digestion, immunity and sleep when you’re stressed
  • How nervous system states influence people pleasing, burnout, procrastination and overthinking
  • Why traditional calming techniques don’t work when you’re too activated
  • The simple cues your body gives you when you’re shifting back into regulation
  • How reconnecting with your inner child restores safety and softens old survival tendencies


Georgie also generously walks us through two beautiful, accessible practices that you can use anytime you need to.
