03 - Scott Hamilton - From Olympic Gold Medal to Supporting the Latest Innovations in Cancer Care: A Conversation with Scott Hamilton

In a recent episode recorded in Nashville, I had the honor of interviewing Olympic Gold Medalist Scott Hamilton. Known not only for his remarkable achievements in figure skating but also for his dedication to impactful healthcare causes, Scott has channeled his champion spirit into the CARES Foundation. This foundation supports groundbreaking immunotherapy research for glioblastoma—a mission that holds personal significance for Scott and many families affected by this aggressive form of brain cancer.

Scott shared how the CARES Foundation’s upcoming event, Scott Hamilton & Friends, promises a blend of entertainment and philanthropy, gathering the Nashville community to fuel research that’s pushing the boundaries of cancer treatment. During our conversation, Scott passionately discussed how advanced technology is revolutionizing healthcare. With innovations in diagnostics and treatment, he envisions a future where patients benefit from personalized, more effective care. His journey—from the ice rink to the research lab—embodies resilience and a commitment to excellence, inspiring hope for the future of healthcare.

Scott and I discussed his early childhood, training for his future in figure skating, and life after the Gold Medal.  We’re fortunate to have Scott in the Nashville community and extremely fortunate that he gave us a small amount of his time, incredible energy, and focus on helping others through cancer research.
