Living with and Beyond Cancer
Honest, compassionate conversations about life with a cancer diagnosis — from treatment and uncertainty to survivorship, loss, and finding hope.
Hosted by Steve Pointon — counsellor, cancer patient advocate, and someone who understands this journey from the inside.
About the Podcast
A cancer diagnosis changes everything. But you don't have to navigate it alone.
Living with and Beyond Cancer is a fortnightly podcast hosted by Steve Pointon — a person-centred counsellor, international patient advocate, and someone who has lived alongside cancer himself. Each episode brings honest conversations about the emotional and psychological realities of cancer: the fear, the grief, the resilience, and the life that continues after diagnosis.
Whether you're a patient, a carer, a loved one, or a healthcare professional, this podcast is a space for real talk about what it means to live with and beyond cancer.
