"I sat my parents down and said I need your support no matter what. If I tell you, I need to heal by standing upside down, and I want you to say 'That's great, we support you.''
We first learned about breast cancer thriver and transformational coach Veronika Bubenickova's vision for The Lotus Journey. Her message immediately resonated with us. She speaks of embracing a fuller, more empowered life. One rooted in strength rather than fear—and her story captivated our hearts.
We knew we had to have her on the podcast. In this 30-minute episode, you'll hear honest mindset shifts. Real talk about those inevitable meltdowns (yes, they're normal), and unapologetically practical ways to unlock your inner strength. All while gaining support from loved ones.
She also dives into many aspects of the 7 Essentials System®, such as energy healing, reducing toxic exposure, and how she used creative therapies to elevate her chemo journey.
For additional support, please download Veronika's free guide that includes 100+ questions to ask your medical team and find her on Instagram and Facebook.
Breast cancer can be a gift; listen, learn, absorb, and discover what gift you may be receiving from this journey.
"Dad, I want you to tell my story to as many people as possible, so women can detect their cancer early and not go through what I have." Keesha, who passed away at a tragically young age of 34, told her father.
Her father, Bob Furniss, who joined us for this episode, has gone above and beyond with her request. He wrote a book: On To Blue: The Story of a Breast Cancer Warrior Through the Eyes of a Dad (learn more here), started an early detection nonprofit for younger (WarriorPrincess.org), and is sharing his daughter's fierce fighting spirit and sage wisdom with you today!
Here on this podcast, we know the stories we tell have power. We believe that knowing your body and acting early are so critical in healing breast cancer that it is Essential #7 in Dr. V's 7 Essentials System®. Too many lives have been forever altered by silent symptoms, delayed exams, or the assumption that "it can't happen to me." But it did happen—and so we speak it, write about it, (Click here to review our post on early-onset cancer), and turn pain into passion.
Together, let's explore how to listen to our bodies, advocate for our health, and encourage those around us. Bring a tissue box, because this one is personal and deeply moving.

For example, Dr. Sherwood and De'Ann delve into the importance of understanding your hormones and maintaining their balance.

Chemotherapy, radiation, childbirth, menopause, etc. can all throw off the delicate balance of your vaginal microbiome. And yet, many women (and even doctors) don't know much about how to restore and care for their vaginal health.
And since breast cancer healing requires a complete, full-body transformation, we took matters into our own hands and interviewed trailblazers Wendy Strgar, a woman who has revolutionized vaginal health with technology, science, and empathy.
As the founder of Good Clean Love, Vaginal Biome Science, and Womankind Care, Wendy has spent decades pioneering non-toxic, biomimicry-based solutions that restore the delicate balance of the vaginal microbiome…even after cancer treatments. She created her patented Bio-Matched® technology and developed the first microbiota testing panel focused on vaginal health.
If you've ever struggled with vaginal discomfort, odor, or recurring infections, and felt like your providers just "don't get it," this conversation is for you.
