"Showing Up: Perspectives on Cancer" Host Tim Sohn talks about why it is so important that survivors know they are not alone

Jill Squire, Oncology Certified Nurse Episode 22

Tim Sohn, a CML cancer survivor, hosts and produces the weekly live-stream show, “Showing Up: Perspectives on Cancer”.  Tim and his survivor guests prove how valuable the shared experience can be. 

Jill and Tim discuss the challenges of engaging in life with an “invisible illness”.

Today, Tim joins the podcast and shows us his gift of making us feel like we are talking at his kitchen table.

He got real with us and sharing how the survivors he welcomes to his show impact his life and perspective.

Tim gives us a glimpse of his vulnerable side as he recalls the challenge of going from remission to recurrence of his Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML).  

We are suspended in time with Tim as he recounts the uplifting and meaningful support he received from two members of his audience while sharing his personal sense of devastation with recurrence of CML on “Showing Up”.

He sheds light on the inspiring aspect of the survivors supporting each other as he recounts his shift from a private cancer story private to sharing it publicly in 2021 …
"Showing Up: Perspectives on Cancer," was born.

“Showing Up” is a live show airing Wednesdays at 8 PM Eastern on LinkedIn, then is posted on YouTube. The show provides a safe space for cancer patients, survivors, and supporters to share their stories, fostering a sense of community and understanding.
