  • Ep. 11, Season 1: The Diagnosis No One Prepares You For | Amber’s Story, Part 1
    Jan 22 2026

    In this episode of Quarterbacking Cancer, Dr. Tracey Stroup introduces a story that shaped the very foundation of this work.

    Amber Keith was doing “everything right.”
    Clean food. Holistic living. A devoted mother, wife, caregiver, and believer.

    And then came the diagnosis—one no one prepares you for.

    In Part 1 of Amber’s 3-part journey, we walk through the moment everything changed:

    • The shock of discovering a lump
    • The fear-driven medical system that offered answers before questions
    • The confusion, overwhelm, and lack of guidance so many patients experience
    • And the emotional, spiritual, and physical weight that cancer places on a family

    This episode isn’t about protocols or treatment plans—yet.
    It’s about the human moment before the plan exists.

    Dr. Tracey shares a personal introduction, why Amber’s story became the catalyst for Quarterbacking Cancer, and why this podcast exists—not just to inform, but to equip.

    Because cancer care shouldn’t feel like chaos.
    And patients deserve more than fear-based decisions.

    This is where Amber’s story begins.
    And where hope starts to take shape.

    Because in this game, hope has a game plan.

    Jan 15 2026

    Welcome back to Quarterbacking Cancer—the podcast that strips away confusion in cancer care and helps you build a clear, hopeful game plan.

    In this powerful and deeply necessary conversation, host Dr. Tracey Stroup is joined by Dr. Sherian McCoy, a naturopathic doctor, cancer coach, and trusted member of Dr. Tracey’s telehealth team, to explore one of the most overlooked aspects of healing: the emotional and spiritual roots of disease.

    Together, they unpack how unresolved trauma, fear, shame, grief, and identity wounds can contribute to dis-ease in the body—and why true healing must address the mind, body, and spirit. Drawing from clinical experience, personal testimony, and a Christ-centered perspective, this episode sheds light on how emotions influence physical health, how faith reframes diagnosis, and why hope is not passive—it’s strategic.

    You’ll hear:

    • Why cancer care must go beyond labs, scans, and protocols
    • How emotions like fear, regret, and unprocessed grief impact the body
    • The difference between conviction and shame—and why it matters for healing
    • How faith and emotional healing work together, without bypassing reality
    • A high-level look at Dr. McCoy’s Anchored in Hope emotional healing program

    Whether you’re a patient, caregiver, survivor, or healthcare professional, this episode invites you to look deeper—without fear—and reminds you that while you’re still breathing, there’s still hope.

    In this powerful and deeply moving episode of Quarterbacking Cancer, Dr. Tracey sits down with Cara Atkinson, founder and CEO of Club Hope Foundation, to talk about what happens in the spaces cancer care often overlooks.

    Born from Cara’s own cancer journey at just 22 years old, Club Hope has grown into a multi-county, faith-rooted nonprofit offering everything from “Boxes of Hope” and gas cards to bill assistance, home services, pediatric programs, and school-based chapters that teach the next generation the power of compassion.

    This episode goes beyond protocols and therapies to explore:

    • Why hope is medicine
    • How community changes outcomes
    • The unseen financial and emotional burdens of cancer
    • Why support should never be conditional
    • How faith, service, and collaboration restore dignity in the hardest moments
