Women's Health Unplugged


Mar 17, 2023

It’s common for us to skip over an episode if we feel like a topic doesn’t apply to us, or if we feel nervous to listen. 

 

This particular episode is for everyone, and we’re going to help you feel more confident thinking about cancer either for yourself, or in your family and loved ones. 

 

I’m joined today by Dr. Martha Sharpe ND who focuses her practice on cancer survivorship. We discuss her personal journey with a cancer diagnosis and how she felt as a healthcare practitioner trying to navigate the system. Martha has dedicated her career to helping women understand how to reduce their personal cancer risk, but also to feel empowered in their survivorship. 

 

In this episode we cover:

  • The importance of feeling autonomous in your health care. 

  • The difference between prevention and blame. 

  • How to stack your health deck in your favour to reduce your cancer risk. 

  • The impact of alcohol on cancer risk. 

  • How an anti-cancer lifestyle is actually a whole-health lifestyle. 

  • You don’t need to spend a ton of money to have an anti-cancer health plan. 

 

Dr. Martha Sharpe, ND, is a Naturopathic Doctor in Barrie, Ontario, Canada. Dr. Martha is dedicated to filling this gap and rewriting cancer survivorship with comprehensive, individualized, and holistic care.  She is passionate about helping people find the clarity and empowerment they need to step back into life post-cancer, and feel at home in their bodies again. You can find her on Instagram @marthasharpe_nd and learn more about her offers including a 4-week course on foundations for fuelling your body after cancer (and for cancer prevention) where she is offering our listeners a $100.00 promo.
