 So you’ve had cancer and now you’re wondering what comes next. Maybe you just finished treatment and feel overwhelmed trying to put the pieces of your life back together. Maybe you’re terrified of a recurrence and can’t stop worrying about every ache and pain. Or maybe you carry a cancer gene and are ready to do everything you can to prevent cancer in the first place. You want to heal your body, lose the treatment weight, rebuild your energy, and finally feel like yourself again, but you don’t know where to start. I’m Michelle, an 8-year Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma survivor, mom, and Integrative Nutrition Health Coach. I’ve been where you are, and on this podcast we’ll walk through it together. Here we talk about the real tools that help you detox and heal without the hype. We’ll cover everything from everyday ways to lower your toxin load to the top anti-cancer foods, how to rebuild your immune system, balance your hormones, and calm the fear of recurrence. You’ll also learn how to create a low-toxin home, what should be on your plate every day, and the surprising everyday things that can raise cancer risk. If you’re ready to rise from the ashes and build a body and a life you can trust, you’re in the right place. This is about more than surviving cancer. It’s about creating the healthiest, strongest version of you.Copyright 2025 Hygiène et vie saine

    Share this with someone who has been touched by cancer.


    What happens after the diagnosis, when the appointments end, and the real questions begin?


    Today I’m joined by breast cancer survivor Kelly Rovetto, the founder of Re-Femme, a cancer support platform created to support women through their active cancer journey.


    We talk honestly about the moment treatment becomes real and how fear, overwhelm, and questions around identity, hair, skin, and femininity surface quickly. Kelly shares what it felt like to understand the medical side of cancer yet feel unprepared for everything that happens outside the clinic walls. That gap is what inspired Re-Femme, a resource offering trusted tips, tools, beauty and wellness services, and education designed to reduce isolation and increase connection.


    This episode speaks to anyone navigating treatment, survivorship, or caregiving for someone who wants cancer journey support that feels humane, accessible, and grounded in real experience.


    You’ll Learn:


    [00:00] Introduction

    [02:29] Kelly's breast cancer diagnosis and the overwhelming gaps she discovered in support systems

    [06:40] Why cancer support groups on Facebook became overwhelming rather than comforting

    [13:36] The identity crisis and femininity loss that cancer treatment creates

    [19:21] How PTSD affects 96% of cancer patients and the powerlessness of diagnosis

    [35:40] What services Re-Femme offers

    A stressed nervous system can cancel out even the best nutrition.


    If healing feels harder than it should, this episode explores why nervous system regulation may be the foundation you’re missing. I walk through practical anti-cancer lifestyle habits I’m personally prioritizing for 2026 and explain how chronic stress affects the body.


    There are simple, realistic ways to support parasympathetic healing, including breathwork, slowing meals down, protecting sleep as medicine, and building routines that lower cortisol rather than add pressure. Blood sugar balance is examined through its impact on inflammation, sleep, and long-term health, along with why eating protein first and stopping food a few hours before bed can matter.


    This episode also covers reducing toxic load where exposure is highest, especially through daily-use products, food, and environment, and why consistency matters more than perfection for cancer prevention and recovery.


    If you’re a survivor, patient, or focused on prevention, this conversation centers on building a supportive internal environment through daily choices that feel sustainable and human, not extreme.


    You’ll Learn:


    [00:00] Introduction

    [01:22] Why you can't heal in fight or flight

    [05:19] My favourite thing to do to pull me out of fight or flight

    [07:08] Finding your low-toxic product favorites and putting health on autopilot

    [10:46] The best hack to support your blood pressure

    [13:40] Less perfection and more consistency instead of wellness toxicity

    [16:10] Focusing on what you do daily, and not occasionally

    [18:29] Eating to lower inflammation versus restricting

    [20:16] Understanding your toxic load ‘rain bucket’

    [22:38] Small swaps, big impact: the 28-day study proving personal care products change your cells

    [25:43] Why you should protect sleep like it’s medicine

    [27:33] Building long-term foundational health changes instead of seeking quick fixes
