If you knew that first step was solid and the action safe to take, would you do it?
I know you want to move beyond the endless googling for the right answers, reduce the insecurity, anxiety, and doubt, tame your fear and find some peace in knowing you have an optimal plan to proactively complement your cancer treatments, prevent recurrence or avoid an initial diagnosis.
Sometimes, it’s all about just being courageous enough to take the first steps, even if the entire path is still shrouded in fog and we have no idea where it will lead us.
Over the years I have observed three types of cancer patients.
You would not be here if you had already found your path and were confidently embracing life despite cancer.
You would also not be here if you were still unaware that there is a path you need to find to move beyond cancer.
You are here because you are still searching, hoping to find some traction from which to catapult yourself into a space where you can embrace life again despite cancer.
If you envision yourself as part of the group that confidently moves through treatments, gets a grip on living a meaningful life with or post-cancer and feels assured that they are doing what they can to stay cancer free, then welcome!
This smart group is figuring out what changes they have to make to their diet and lifestyle to create an environment that is unwelcoming to cancer, and then embrace the path that unfolds in front of them.
I am here to help you gain momentum and set you on a trajectory to get you there.

When I was diagnosed with my first breast cancer I spent many hours sifting through evidence-based research as well as trendy hype trying to map out a plan that would answer all the nagging questions I had. I was forced to revisit that road map and find new connecting paths when I was diagnosed a second time three years later. It is exhausting and seems never-ending trying to make sense of it all when you are struggling with the physical as well as emotional effects of cancer treatments at the same time.
I would have done anything at the time to have access to a Done-for-me Guide to get me started on the right track.
And that is why I am driven and committed to making it easier for you by offering you this program.
I have worked side by side with Kirstin in a clinical setting and as a presenter for holistic health information at various panel discussions. I enjoy listening to her talks and workshops as a fellow clinician because she brings clarity to the “murkiness” of technical clinical health information. By that, I mean she is clever at deciphering clinical studies and then making that same information understandable and applicable to her audience and clients. I like that she often shares bullet points and gems of information that is helpful and useful to the layperson. She has tenacity for keeping updated with the latest cutting edge health and nutritional information. As a presenter, she shares all sides of a health issue or product and gives her audience the value of her vast knowledge with the strong foundation of clinical studies.

(*) WHAT ARE SUBLIMINALS?
A subliminal message is something we do not audibly hear with our conscious minds, it is a message that our subconscious minds can hear. There it has the same effect that the “silent” self talk has that we engage in every single day, our minds can listen and hear this even if our conscious awareness does not “hear” it. During a recording, a low volume audio cue [the softly spoken lyrics] is inserted into an audio source, which in this case is gentle, soothing instrumental music. You, or rather your conscious mind, cannot hear the actual lyrics, but the whole point is that your subconscious can hear them, converting them into a powerfully healing message.
In Healing from Cancer, the above lyrics were softly spoken, over and over again in a continuous loop, by both myself and one of my mentors, Robert (Bob) Burns, Master Clinical Hypnotherapist, Master Practitioner of Neuro Linguistic Programming, Reiki Master Practitioner, Linguistic Architect and Author. Bob has been in the field of subliminal technology for well over 20 years and his audio programs have helped many heal from various ailments. He hosts two weekly radio shows and teaches self-empowering workshops nationwide.
Here’s a taste of what you’ll discover by going through the First Steps Program
I had the pleasure of connecting with Kirstin through my progression of breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. I appreciate her holistic approach to healing. With her help, I learned to understand mind-body balance and how best I can heal using holistic modules. This included nutrition and lifestyle changes. She showed me how to read labels and change eating habits for the better.To date, I have incorporated many things I have learnt from her and am on my way to healing. She is accessible, knowledgeable, supportive, very professional and yet compassionate. I highly recommend you contact her if you are ready to make a real change for the better. Very happy to have worked with her and she will always be part of my holistic journey 🙂
How long do I have access to the program?
You will have lifetime access to my First Steps Program. You will also receive any program updates free of charge.
How much time will the program take?
That depends entirely on you. I designed the program with a busy schedule and only little available time for dedicated education in mind. The program is offered in short, do-able segments, each one no longer than 20 minutes, some a lot shorter than that. This gives you the most flexibility to fit the program in whenever you have some time.
Cancer runs in my immediate family. I want to prevent being diagnosed myself. Is this program for me?
Yes! Our main goal in a disease prevention strategy is to ensure that our own body’s defense systems can do their job. This includes feeding yourself with nutrient-dense, clean and nourishing meals that support an anti-inflammatory environment in which cancer cannot get a foothold in the first place. Targeted nutrition, mindfulness techniques, stress management and emotional self care play a vital role in supporting your body.
I have a lot going on in my life right now. Can I get the program later?
You, but please understand though that the bonuses will not be available later as I have to honor those who committed right away. I hope you can respect that too.
You can always get the program (and all the bonuses) now and start it at a time when you have more peace and quiet. Remember, as you move through your health journey, every support offered along the way is a helping hand to make it easier for you to come to terms with this new direction. This program is meant to accompany you along the way, not await you at the finish line.
Can I do the program while undergoing conventional cancer treatments?
Yes you can! The nutritional and lifestyle recommendations can be effective with everyone, not just yourself. In fact I encourage you to share what you have learnt with members of your immediate family so they are on board too and can support you in the best way possible.
I am a caregiver to someone who has cancer. Is this program for me?
Yes! As caregivers we offer support in many ways. Whether you wish to cook nourishing meals or offer mental and emotional support, you can learn valuable tools and strategies you can apply to offer more effective and targeted care. You can even apply the steps you will be learning to your own chronic disease prevention care.
I am afraid that I won't have the time to implement the dietary and lifestyle changes.
The current statistics in the US (issued by the American Cancer Society and National Centers for Health Statistics) predict a steady increase of new cancer diagnoses each year. On top of the list are Breast, Lung, Prostate, Colorectal, Melanoma and Urinary Bladder cancers. Cancer deaths are also steadily increasing each year. I don’t know about you, but as a two-times cancer survivor myself, looking after my health in every possible way I can, is my top priority. No one else but I myself am responsible for my health journey. The First Steps Program offers you a great START to begin taking care of yourself in easy, manageable 10 steps. That is the precise point of the program. Helping you make it happen without overwhelming you at first.
If I wish to take it further, can I get more personalized support from you?
Absolutely! I offer a comprehensive mentoring program individualized to your needs where we address what you have learnt from this program and take it to a whole new level. Please contact me at kirstin@kirstinscancercare.comand we can discuss the next steps.
