For years after treatment ended, the exhaustion didn’t.
Not the kind you fix with sleep. Not the kind you push through. The kind that quietly reshapes your life: work, relationships, and identity - until one day you realize you’re not just tired… you’re not yourself anymore.
That’s where this conversation begins: in the gap between surviving cancer and actually feeling alive again.
Episode Highlights
- What cancer-related fatigue really is and why it’s not solved by rest
- The difference between integrative oncology, naturopathy, and palliative care
- Why personalization matters (and why “try everything” often fails)
- The truth about vitamin C infusions, sugar, and alternative cancer claims
- How to evaluate health advice online without falling into misinformation
- The concept of “respecting cancer”and why that mindset changes everything
About the Guest
Dr. Jessa Landmann is a naturopathic doctor specializing in integrative oncology, with nearly 15 years of clinical experience supporting cancer patients through treatment and recovery. Her work focuses on combining conventional cancer care: like chemotherapy and radiation with evidence-based complementary therapies to improve quality of life.
Her path into this field is deeply personal. After her mother was diagnosed with cancer when she was just 39, Dr. Landmann became driven to understand the disease, its treatments, and how patients can be better supported through it.
She is also the author of a book focused on cancer-related fatigue, offering patients a structured, self-guided approach to identifying and addressing the root causes of their exhaustion.

“If vitamin C cured cancer, I’d be curing cancer all day long. It’s meant to support treatment, not replace it.”
