Redefining Advocacy in Cancer Care - EP31


Listen Later

In this episode of the Oncology Revolution Podcast, we're joined by Matthew Zachary, a brain cancer survivor, founder of Stupid Cancer, and creator of Out of Patients, in a conversation about what real patient advocacy means today. Drawing from decades of experience leading movements and building communities, Matthew shares how empathy, storytelling, and trust can transform the relationship between patients and professionals.


Matthew wants everyone to learn that:

•Advocacy starts with listening, not branding

•Empathy builds more trust than expertise alone

•Community creates change faster than awareness

•Storytelling is strategy, not decoration

•Patients don’t need saving; they need partnership
