| 278. You’re Not Lazy: The Real Science Behind Cancer Fatigue with Dr. Landmann | 14 Dec 2025 | 00:41:31 | |
Love the podcast? Send us a text! Cancer related fatigue is one of the most persistent and frustrating symptoms. In this deeply validating and informative episode of Breast Cancer Conversations, host Laura Carfang, Ed.D., sits down with Dr. Jessa Landmann, naturopathic doctor and integrative oncology specialist, to unpack why fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, joint pain, and sleep disruption linger long after chemotherapy, radiation, or hormone therapy. Too often, those diagnosed with breast cancer are told to “give it time,” “exercise more,” or “push through.” This conversation reframes fatigue as a treatable, understandable consequence of cancer and its therapies—and offers compassionate, practical strategies to reclaim quality of life. Whether you’re newly diagnosed, in active treatment, living with metastatic disease, or years into survivorship, this episode reminds you: you’re not broken—and you don’t have to live exhausted.

Love the podcast? Send us a text! About the presenters: Amanda Raffenaud Amanda has been living with state 4 metastatic breast cancer since 2018. Not only was she completely shocked to be diagnosed with breast cancer, de novo, at the age of 38, but she was shocked to learn it had spread to dozens of bones in her body. She had no early stage breast cancer diagnosis and was even under the care of a breast surgeon for four years prior to her metastatic diagnosis. Since diagnosis, she has been in active treatment for stage 4 cancer, undergoing countless bone infusions, multiple surgeries, chemotherapy lines, and monthly oncology visits. She is on her 8th line of treatment in 3 years to help stop the growth and spread of cancer. Currently she has mets to both breasts, lungs, liver, bones, and brain. Amy Parliaman Amy Ellen Parliman lives life by faith and enjoys spreading kindness. She has a passion for serving her community thru her career in healthcare. 26 years ago, she went to school to become a radiology technologist. She enjoys performing diagnostic imaging on her patients, she prides herself in safe and quality care. About 12 years ago she became a leader in her field and has moved into a leadership role in the Diagnostic Imaging Department. On January 29, 2014 Amy became a Cancer patient. She underwent treatment for stage III breast cancer during 2014. She lived with NED until January 29, 2019 then she was told she had MBC. She is currently on her first line treatment. If the opportunity presents, she will share her various experiences of living after diagnosis. Claudia Gonzalez Claudia was born in Colombia, South America where she grew up surrounded by her parents, brother, sister, and many close-knit extended family members, including more than 20 aunts and uncles and 100 cousins. Looking for new opportunities, Claudia, her parents, and siblings made the United States their home in 1980. Moving to a new country, learning a new language, and leaving family and friends was a challenge for Claudia. In March of 2018, Claudia faced a bigger life challenge. She was diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer. A few weeks after the original diagnosis and after numerous tests she was informed the cancer cells had traveled to her bones and stage IV was added to her diagnosis. Claudia started her journey to treat this aggressive type of cancer in April 2018. Treatment included aggressive chemotherapy followed by a right mastectomy, one intense radiation to the lower vertebra, radiations to right chest and lymph nodes, and oral chemo that ended in September 2019. From October of 2019 to June of 2021 Claudia had - No Evidence of Disease (NED). A mammogram of her left breast done on June 8th, 2021, revealed two lumps. That same day a biopsy was completed and a few days later it was confirmed both tumors were again Tripple Negative Breast Cancer. The fear of recurrence unfortunately had become a reality for Claudia. Listener Feedback If this episode resonated with you, we invite you to leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.

| 176. Pelvic Floor Health with Physical Therapist Beth Hoag | 02 Oct 2022 | 00:50:35 | |
Love the podcast? Send us a text! A diagnosis of breast cancer can have a profound impact on a person’s life, both physically and emotionally. In addition to undergoing treatment and managing the side effects, many women are also faced with the challenge of maintaining their pelvic health. Pelvic floor disorders, such as incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse, are common in women who have had breast cancer, due to the damage caused by chemotherapy, injections, surgery, and radiation therapy. These disorders can be both embarrassing and debilitating, making it difficult for women to live their lives to the fullest. While there is no cure for menopause (medical or not), there are ways to manage the symptoms.

| 175. What is Cryrotherapy and How Does It Work? | With Dr. Soyano & the NatraCure Team | 25 Sep 2022 | 00:45:45 | |
Love the podcast? Send us a text! Have you ever wondered how new therapeutic products are designed and created? We were also curious about this process, and decided to learn more about it from a few of our friends at NatraCure, a New Jersey-based therapeutics company and longtime partner of SBC. We sat down with Ben Tiffany, President of Sales and Marketing, Diane Lee, Director of Marketing, and Jim Bush, COO and Director of Product Development, along with Dr. Axia Soyano at Moffit Cancer Center in Tampa, Florida to discuss their unique cryotherapy product line: how it came to be, and how it works to prevent chemotherapy side effects and complications. Cryotherapy primarily works by temporarily decreasing circulation in sensitive areas such as the hands and feet, which also limits the amount of chemotherapy that is able to reach and damage the many nerves in these areas. However, in creating a product for this purpose, it’s not as simple as it seems; there’s a lot that needs to be addressed, and input from patients is paramount in creating a successful, helpful therapy. Join us as we discuss the ins and outs of creating and distributing a cryotherapy line at NatraCure, and how they pledged to always make your comfort their goal. Welcome to the conversation!

Love the podcast? Send us a text! Sex is everywhere, whether it’s on your tv screen, a book you’re reading, or on social media. Yet, sexual health is a taboo subject for many people, and when undergoing cancer treatment, it can disrupt people’s day-to-day lives. In this episode we speak with Dr. Sharon Bober from Dana Farber Cancer Institute about the sexual health challenges breast cancer patients face, the effect cancer treatment has on the body, and how it affects sexual relationships. Sexual health needs to be a part of the conversation when speaking with oncologists. Just like being asked about various side effects asking about one’s sexual health while going through treatment should also be commonplace. We need to elevate survivorship voices and the long-term challenges we face. Learn what steps you can take to restore your sexual health and how to navigate these conversations with your medical providers. Welcome to the Conversation! Topics Discussed:

| What is a Variant of Uncertain Significance? | 07 May 2022 | 00:08:22 | |
Love the podcast? Send us a text! Have you been screened for a genetic predisposition towards breast cancer? I have. My results returned a "Variant of Unknown Significance", or VUS. What is a Variant of Unknown Significance? It’s a common question and I am pleased to have Dr. Mártir-Negrón, a medical geneticist at Miami Cancer Institute, part of Baptist Health South Florida, and trained in internal medicine, genetic diagnosis and the treatment of patients with hereditary disorders to help answer this question! Laura: Dr. Mártir-Negrón, I understand when we get our genetic testing back and read through the results, sometimes we get what is called a variant of unknown significance, also referred to as VUS. Can you explain what this means and how it impacts breast cancer treatment decisions? Dr. Mártir-Negrón: What a variant of unknown significance means is that there was a change that was found in you. But guess what, we all have changes in our genes; that’s what makes us unique and who we are. The only ones that we know will cause problems are the ones that we call pathogenic. Based on data, we know that 90% of these inconclusive changes are benign. At the lab we'll continue to review, and when there is more data, they will reach out to whoever ordered the test to inform them of any new findings. The person who ordered the test is the one that is going to receive the reclassification. Again, 90% of the cases are benign, so we call it negative until proven otherwise. In terms of treatment, we don't do anything with that information and no action is taken. But, if we give recommendations, it's not because of the inconclusive work, it’s what we're seeing in terms of one’s family history. With the inconclusive result, you're always going to have that change, you were born with that change. What it changes is our interpretation. When we see that somebody has a variant of unknown significance or is inconclusive, we look at ClinVar. ClinVar is a part of the National Institute of Health and aggregates information about genomic variation and its relationship to human health. Obviously, no names or personal data are disclosed. What we do is when we see any inconclusives, we will look at ClinVar to see what all the labs are saying. Laura Carfang: That's such a great point. ClinVar is a freely available public archive of human genetic variations and interpretations of the relationships to disease and other conditions. Abigail Johnston: Just another reason why talking to the right doctor about the right topic is so important. Dr. Mártir-Negrón is a geneticist, you don't mind saying you don't know, whereas other doctors in other specialties often avoid saying "I don't know something" and it's very important to remember that.

In this episode of Breast Cancer Conversations, host Laura Carfang sits down with Dr. Rebecca Knackstedt, Assistant Professor of Plastic Surgery at Duke University and founder of the popular Instagram community @surgical_recovery.

| 143. My Friend Has Breast Cancer, What Can I Do To Help? With Candace Bloomstrand and Lauren Rampello | 23 Jan 2022 | 00:07:12 | |
Love the podcast? Send us a text! When you are diagnosed with breast cancer it is devastating. When you find out your friend has breast cancer, it can trigger PTSD, flashbacks of your own diagnosis, empathy for what your friend is about to endure, and a willingness to help, support, and be there for her. We often get asks from friends, what can they do to support someone who has recently been diagnosed with breast cancer. Similarly, those of us living with a diagnosis often talk about what not to say to someone with a recent diagnosis. Sometimes even the most helpful words of encouragement or best intentions can rub someone the wrong way. What better way to explore this conversation than to invite Candace Bloomstrand to interview her friend, Lauren Rampello what it was like to be diagnosed with breast cancer under 35, run a successful business, and explore how friends can offer support, knowing that the support you may request one day may look different a day, week, or month down the line.

Love the podcast? Send us a text! Today on Breast Cancer Conversations, we continue the conversation of germline breast cancer mutations and the weighted complexities of passing on genes that may lead to developing breast cancer, or other types of cancer. We are joined by: Dr. Mártir-Negrón: a medical geneticist at Miami Cancer Institute, a world class cancer center part of Baptist Health South Florida. Dr. Mártir-Negrón, is trained in internal medicine, genetic diagnosis and the treatment of patients with hereditary disorders. Dr. Mártir-Negrón, is board certified in medical genetics and internal medicine. Her clinical interests include genetic cancer risk assessment, breast cancer, colon cancer and ovarian cancer.

Abigail Johnston: who is living with metastatic stage iv breast cancer and carries the ATM gene Abigail’s mother, Beverly Schroeder who was diagnosed with early stage breast cancer only to discover later on that she too carries the ATM gene. Trish Chambers Balas three-time breast cancer survivor joins us with her daughter Maddie Balas. We also have Stephanie McLeod Estevez.

Let me just start it with that. Our genes are the things that are in our DNA, it is something that we have no control over. This is not about blame. This is not about looking at somebody and saying it's your fault. It's about how do you deal with a genetic mutation that runs in a family. Welcome to the conversation.

Love the podcast? Send us a text! A cancer diagnosis is life-changing. For individuals navigating breast cancer, the focus often centers on survival—completing treatment, managing side effects, and getting back to “normal.” But for many survivors, what follows is far from familiar. The emotional, physical, and relational impacts of cancer can linger long after treatment ends, especially when it comes to sexual health and intimacy. I had the pleasure of speaking with Tiffini Sharifi, a licensed professional counselor and certified sex therapist. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to better understand and navigate the intersection of breast cancer survivorship and sexual health.
