Business Name myOncoThrive

What problems does your business solve? I am an integrative oncology practitioner and work with women in all stages of cancer. I focus on the whole ”toolbox” to optimise their conventional cancer care, to nurture a confident mindset, to reduce the major drivers of cancer such as chronic inflammation, insulin resistance and stress, to develop resilience and cultivate a biosystem within the body to minimise the risk of cancer recurrence.

What’s something that you wish you had known before getting into business? When I first started my own practice years ago, I felt I had to do everything myself to limit overhead. Hiring help for admin and marketing tasks really helped free up my time & energy to serve my clients so much better. It can be very cost-effective, especially these days with the use of virtual assistants or VAs.

Tell us something about you that most people don’t know? If I wasn't working in oncology, I'd be professional a food critic. I am very adventurous food-wise and love trying out all types of cuisines, although in my daily life I try to adhere to a mostly wholefood plant focused diet.

Please provide your short business bio to be featured in our Membership Directory I provide a a comprehensive, structured program to help women in different stages of cancer to address cancer treatment side-effects, co-morbidity management, including nutrition and culinary coaching, mindfulness techniques for stress & anxiety reduction, and cognitive behavioural therapy for non-restorative sleep. I teach evidence-based strategies to help my clients embrace long-term healthful lifestyle & dietary practices to reduce risk of cancer recurrence, plus instilling a resilient mindset for their cancer journey.
