S2 EP 24 - Revolutionizing Breast Cancer Prevention with Dr. Jennifer Simmons

Tracey Stroup, ND, CNHP Season 2 Episode 24

In this deeply moving episode of the Eat Pray Faith podcast, Dr. Tracey sits down with the remarkable Dr. Jennifer Simmons—once a leading breast cancer surgeon, now a passionate voice in functional medicine and breast cancer prevention.

Dr. Simmons opens up about her powerful transformation from conventional oncology to a more holistic approach, a shift sparked by her own personal and family battles with breast cancer. With courage and compassion, she shares what she’s learned along the way—challenging the status quo of traditional breast cancer screenings and shining a light on the importance of getting to the root cause of disease.

Together, they explore groundbreaking tools like the Auria Tear test and QT imaging, and discuss how true healing begins with individualized care, lifestyle changes, and a whole-person approach to wellness.

This episode isn’t just about medicine—it’s about hope, empowerment, and the freedom that comes from taking your health into your own hands. It's a must-listen for every woman ready to walk boldly toward a healthier future.
