Eagles Don’t Quack!

Clinical trials are only as good as the people they include and Dr. Marjory Charlot is working to close the gap that leaves too many patients out. If you or someone you love has ever wondered, “Is there a trial for me?” this conversation may change how you think about cancer care, access, and trust.

Dr. Charlot is a thoracic medical oncologist, health equity advocate, and community centered physician who builds solutions with patients, not just for them.

She explains why representation in clinical trials matters, how underrepresentation can affect care, and what it takes to make research more accessible to people balancing treatment, work, family, travel, and uncertainty.

When lupus and burnout forced Kathleen Apodaca to slow down, she began rethinking her health, career, and priorities. In this episode of Eagles Don’t Quack, Kathleen joins Tony Williams to share her journey from corporate leadership and bodybuilding to yoga and functional health.

Tony also shares his own health journey as they explore stress, resilience, and learning to listen to your body.

Kathleen’s story is a reminder that health challenges can change your direction and that it’s okay to make space for what matters most.
