Can a 14-day water fast support healing after cancer—especially at age 74?

Dr. Katie welcomes Ciely Gray, a lifelong holistic practitioner who was diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer at 71 years old and offered a mastectomy. 

Instead, she chose a different path rooted in decades of body-based wisdom. With Dr. Katie’s guidance, Ciely recently completed a two-week supervised water-only fast to support her continued healing.

Together, they explore what fasting actually looks and feels like physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Ciely shares how she moved through body changes, emotional releases, and the unexpected challenge of doing nothing. Group support and inner listening became key elements of her experience.

Chapters:
07:00 – How She Detected Breast Cancer
12:18 – What Fasting Actually Felt Like
15:00 – Letting Go of Doing
22:00 – Trusting the Body to Heal
32:17 – Scan Results After Fasting

Many think fasting is just about food, but for Ciely, it became a mirror for her thoughts, identity, and beliefs. From restless nights to moments of deep clarity, she invites us into the quieter layers of healing, the kind that happens when we stop fixing and start listening.

If you're curious about natural approaches to healing, especially post-diagnosis, this episode offers a grounded and inspiring look at fasting as a tool for long-term wellness. 

Listen and learn how her scan results changed and why trusting the body may be one of the most important things we can learn.
