Janet is a Doctor of Osteopathy and Doctor of Natural Medicine who specializes in integrative oncology and metabolic health. She's the founder of Nurture and Restore Wellness, where she helps patients understand the deeper terrain of their health, the systems and patterns that influence cancer growth and healing.

Her work brings together science, compassion, and personalized care. Janet uses data-driven functional testing, targeted nutrition, and metabolic therapies to help people restore balance, strengthen immunity, and support the body's innate ability to heal.

Her approach combines scientific precision with compassionate care, empowering patients to restore balance, strengthen immunity, and optimize outcomes at every stage of cancer care.

In this episode of The Cancer Liberation Project, Dr. Janet shares her unexpected journey into integrative oncology. Initially hesitant to work with cancer patients, she eventually recognized the deep need for a more compassionate, whole-person approach. Dr. Janet explains how cancer is often misunderstood as purely a genetic mishap, when in reality it's profoundly influenced by metabolism, environment, and lifestyle. She emphasizes that patients don’t have to choose between conventional and integrative care—true healing happens when disciplines collaborate and the patient is seen as a whole human, not just a tumor.

Dr. Janet details how her approach differs from a traditional oncologist: instead of focusing solely on shrinking tumors, she digs into the “terrain”—the stressors, exposures, life patterns, and imbalances that allowed cancer to develop. Using the “test, assess, address” methodology, she relies on comprehensive labs, trends over time, and continuous adjustments rather than rigid protocols. Foundational elements such as nutrition, sleep, stress reduction, movement, and emotional healing are at the core of her work. She stresses that advanced therapies like IV vitamin C, mistletoe, and fasting around chemotherapy are valuable, but they only work when the “container”—the person’s overall terrain—is strong. Emotional and spiritual health, she adds, can be the missing link even when lab results look good.

She also shares insight into her work with Immunocene, a leading-edge dendritic cell immunotherapy program in Mexico, where personalized treatments are created from a patient’s own immune cells and tumor tissue. Dr. Janet supports the program through metabolic oncology guidance, data interpretation, and terrain-based strategies. Her final message to patients is one of empowerment: don’t lose hope, build a supportive team, and focus on what you can control. Healing is not linear, but with curiosity, collaboration, and foundational care, patients can regain clarity, confidence, and agency in their cancer journey.

Leslie is a personal trainer with expertise in cancer exercise intervention and chronic disease, a Pilates instructor, running coach, HIIT trainer, and grief counselor with over two decades of experience helping people optimize their health and wellness through the mind/body connection. She’s passionate about helping people through their own wellness journey by providing exercise and training tips.

In this episode, Leslie shares about exercise oncology—the growing field that uses movement to improve cancer outcomes and overall well-being. After losing several loved ones to cancer, Leslie was inspired to help survivors rebuild strength, confidence, and hope through personalized fitness programs.

She shares key findings from the groundbreaking CHALLENGE Study, which followed colon cancer patients for 15 years and proved that supervised exercise not only reduces side effects but also improves survival rates—showing a 37% reduction in death and 28% reduction in recurrence. These powerful results demonstrate that exercise can be just as impactful as medical treatments in supporting long-term recovery.

Leslie emphasizes that exercise doesn’t have to be complicated—even a brisk walk for a few minutes a day can reduce fatigue, boost mood, improve sleep, and lessen anxiety, pain, and muscle loss. For those who feel too tired or overwhelmed to begin, she encourages starting small, setting realistic goals, and choosing activities that bring joy and consistency.

What Leslie loves most about her work is witnessing the resilience of cancer survivors—their determination to heal and give back, even in their hardest moments. Her heartfelt message: Be gentle with yourself, move your body in ways that feel good, and remember that your “new normal” can be even stronger, healthier, and more hopeful than before.

A member of the Maxwell Leadership Executive Program, a Corporate Facilitator, and a Certified DISC Consultant, Diana Fritz is dedicated to empowering individuals and organizations through open, engaging, and values-driven leadership. Her mission is to create a meaningful impact and ensure every person she encounters feels valued.

Beyond her professional achievements, Diana is a devoted wife, mother, and committed volunteer. She thrives on sharing insights about leadership, resilience, and navigating challenges with authenticity.

In this deeply moving episode, Diana shares her remarkable 12-year cancer journey — one that began unexpectedly with what seemed like a minor eye irritation and evolved into a powerful story of faith, resilience, and purpose. Diagnosed with a rare form of cancer affecting her eye and sinuses, Deanna’s path included multiple surgeries, radiation, immunotherapy, and ultimately the loss of her eye. Yet through it all, she chose gratitude over grief, focusing on what she could control and finding meaning in every challenge.

A single mom at the time of her diagnosis, Deanna learned to accept help from others — a lesson that transformed her both personally and professionally. Her authenticity and strength as a leader grew as she realized that true resilience isn’t about never falling, but about getting back up again and choosing to see the good. She shares how her grandmother’s optimism, her faith, and her background in basketball shaped her mental toughness, teaching her to respond to life’s setbacks with grace and courage.

Deanna also talks about her book, Ultimately Imperfect, Uniquely Qualified, which weaves her cancer story with reflections, lessons, and applications for anyone facing adversity. Through her transparency and compassion, she invites readers to find purpose in their pain and to support others through theirs.

In this conversation, Deanna reminds us that even in the hardest seasons, we still have the freedom to choose how we respond — to be a victim or a victor. Her advice for anyone facing a cancer journey is powerful: focus on the parts of your wellness you can control — your physical, mental, relational, and spiritual health. Because, as she says, cancer doesn’t define us — it can refine us.

Her Book:

Uniquely Imperfect. Uniquely Qualified
