In today’s episode, I sit down with Peter Laneas to explore a deeply personal and incredibly powerful story, what it really feels like to face cancer as a young adult, and how that experience shaped the life he’s living today.
Peter opens up about the moment everything changed, the emotional and physical challenges that followed, and the often-overlooked realities of navigating cancer during a time of life when most people are building careers, relationships, and dreams for the future.
This episode isn’t just about hardship, it’s about transformation.
Peter shares how he reclaimed control after treatment, shifting from survivor to advocate, using his story to raise awareness and create community for others walking a similar path. His honesty, insight, and strength offer a message that every listener can carry with them:
✨ Your story doesn’t end with diagnosis.
✨ Your voice matters.
✨ You can rise, rebuild, and even thrive.
We also dive into the meaningful work Peter is doing today to support people living with cancer from advocacy initiatives to community leadership and peer support.
Whether you’re living with cancer, love someone who is, or want to better understand the young adult survivor experience, this episode will leave you inspired, informed, and reminded of the power of turning pain into purpose.
