In this powerful episode of All Talk Oncology, Kenny Perkins (Your Cancer Guy) sits down with LaShae Rolle, a PhD researcher from The Bahamas who was diagnosed with multicentric breast cancer at just 26 years old. LaShae shares her unique perspective of being both a scientist in the field and a patient in the clinic, proving that strength comes in many forms.

LaShae opens up about:

• Her life as a competitive powerlifter and researcher before her world was shifted by a diagnosis at age 26.
• How she used her knowledge of lifestyle factors—diet, protein intake, and exercise—to prepare her body for the "battle" of chemotherapy and surgery.
• Navigating treatment decisions, such as opting for a unilateral mastectomy and freezing her eggs, based on clinical research and long-term goals.
• Maintaining her powerlifting routine and squatting over 400lbs even during chemotherapy to combat fatigue and maintain bone health.
• How surviving cancer led her to adopt a "you only live once" mindset, focusing on advocacy and living life to the max.
• The importance of adolescent and young adult (AYA) support groups and using social media to connect with other survivors.

This episode is a testament to the resilience of young survivors and a guide for anyone looking to take an active, empowered role in their own healing journey.

There are conversations that stay with you long after the mic turns off. This is one of them.

In this deeply human and unforgettable episode, Mark Sevillano Jr. opens his heart and walks us through the moments that reshaped his life forever from healing after divorce, to rediscovering purpose as a single father, to hearing the words that no one is ever prepared for: “You have cancer.”

Mark shares his raw journey through stage 2 esophageal cancer.. how subtle symptoms turned into a life-threatening diagnosis, the shock of finding out over the phone while alone in a hospital room, and the grueling reality of chemotherapy, surgery, and survivorship. But this is not just a cancer story.

This is a story about resilience, faith, surrender, and redefining what truly matters.

Together, we explore:

• What life looked like before cancer and why that context matters

• Ignoring symptoms, pushing through pain, and the moment everything changed

• Chemotherapy, sepsis shock, and an 8-hour robotic esophagectomy

• The emotional weight of telling your parents and children

• Hair loss, neuropathy, brain fog, and the realities no one warns you about

• Survivorship guilt and the quiet fear of recurrence

• Recovery as its own full-time job

• Relearning food, energy, stress, and self-compassion

• Why joy not hustle is now the priority

• How cancer redirected Mark into advocacy, speaking, and service

Mark’s honesty is grounding. His reflections are powerful. And his message is one so many need to hear: You don’t have to stay stuck. There is hope on the other side.

This episode is for anyone navigating cancer, recovery, caregiving, grief, burnout, or a major life reset and for anyone who needs permission to slow down and choose joy again.
