What if cancer care wasn’t just about treatments… but about empowerment, prevention, and true healing?

In this episode, you’ll meet two extraordinary leaders carrying forward one of the most impactful legacies in holistic cancer care: Carl Wagner (CEO) and Zakariya Frank (COO) of BeatCancer.org

For decades, BeatCancer.org has stood as a beacon of hope — founded by the remarkable Susan Silberstein, a pioneer who showed the world that cancer care can and must address the whole person: body, mind, and spirit.

Carl and Zakariya share how they’ve taken that torch into the modern era, expanding BeatCancer.org into a powerful global resource for patients, families, and practitioners. From their virtual Holistic Cancer Coaching program, to weekly community calls, to comprehensive education that transforms fear into confidence, their mission is nothing less than to break the generational cycle of cancer.

👉 This isn’t about being a “victim” of cancer. It’s about becoming an active participant in your healing journey.
👉 It’s about shifting from despair to hope, and from isolation to support.
👉 It’s about changing not just one life, but entire families — and generations to come.

This episode is for anyone touched by cancer — directly or through a loved one — and for anyone who believes in a better way forward.

🎧 Don’t miss this inspiring and practical conversation. It could change how you think about cancer… and about healing itself.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
