Thank you for listening to our podcast with Eva Bartos, Health and Wellness Coach. On 29th January 2020, Eva received a phone call telling her she had breast cancer. She thought she pulled a muscle in her chest after exercising, was investigating and then found a strange lump instead. She made the decision to get it checked further. It was not in a place where a mammogram would find it so fortunately, she had a brilliant doctor ready to support her. As Eva said, ‘she was like a pit bull in a skirt!’ This is Eva’s story on how she managed chemo, surgery and recovery through learning to love and care for herself more. She shared so many insights with us in our recording but here are four tips in particular she focuses on now: Surround yourself with a support systemTake it easy and give yourself some grace Learn to set prioritiesProtect your peace If you would like to follow Eva on social media or get in touch with her you can find her on these platforms: Website:  https://yournourishingself.wixsite.com/website Instagram: @your_nourishing_self   Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/yournourishingself  If you or anyone you know has recently been diagnosed with Cancer or is going through treatment, please seek advice from your practitioner before taking any products we talk about on the show.If you would like to speak with any of us on the Cancer Talks team further, you can find our details below:Cancer Talks Website: https://www.cancertalks.co.uk  Instagram: @cancer.talks   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Cancer-Talks-103287928192102 Linda Sims:Website: http://www.lindasimsnutrition.co.uk  Instagram: @lindasimsnutrition   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lindasimsnutrition LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/linda-sims-808a91b3/    Andrea Burton:Instagram: @andreaburtonnutritionWebsite: https://www.andreaburtonnutrition.co.ukFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/AndreaBurtonNutrition/ Deb MacLeod: Instagram: @thenaturalhealthcarenetwork Website: https://www.thenaturalhealthcarenetwork.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thenaturalhealthcarenetwork LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deborah-macleod-a936773/ Thank you for listening and here’s wishing you and yours the very best of health. The Cancer Talks TeamPlease note.

Thank you for joining us on our introductory show. Cancer Talks is an exciting new podcast hosted by 3 qualified and registered Nutritional Therapists: Linda Sims, Deb MacLeod and Andrea Burton. Linda and Andrea see cancer clients in their nutrition clinics and all 3 are passionate about helping people who are living with a cancer diagnosis. Nutritional therapy is a very valuable tool in cancer prevention but it also helps to support the body during and post treatment – nutrition can help all the way along a cancer journey. Whilst there are never any promises when it comes to cancer, improving overall health and enjoyment of life is the best strategy. This is personal for the 3 of us – we have all been touched by cancer – and we want to help cut through all the jargon, the research and the, dare we say it, fake news! We want to empower you to have the best health outcome that you can.If you would like to speak with any of us further, you can find us on the following social media platforms:Linda SimsWebsite: http://www.lindasimsnutrition.co.uk  Instagram: @lindasimsnutrition   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lindasimsnutrition LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/linda-sims-808a91b3/     Andrea BurtonInstagram: @andreaburtonnutritionWebsite: https://www.andreaburtonnutrition.co.ukFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/AndreaBurtonNutrition/ Deb MacLeodInstagram: @thenaturalhealthcarenetwork Website: https://www.thenaturalhealthcarenetwork.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thenaturalhealthcarenetworkLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deborah-macleod-a936773/Thank you for listening. Here’s wishing you all good health! DebPlease note.
