One of the factors that I see in almost every cancer situation is toxic stress from dysfunctional family relationships. Sometimes it’s a troubled marriage, sometimes it’s between siblings, sometimes it’s between parents and children, sometimes it’s between partners or co-workers… And sometimes it’s all of the above!
Make no mistake, the stress caused by toxic relationships can wreck your life and your health over time.
I say this all the time… If you don’t address the stress in your life, you may not get well!
So, in addition to adopting a healthy diet and lifestyle, developing healthy relationships and repairing broken ones is something we all need help with.
Enter Stacey Martino.
Stacey is a relationship expert who, after saving her own marriage many years ago, created a powerful method called Relationship Development. She has an incredible success rate in restoring broken relationships and saving troubled marriages from divorce.
One of the most powerful lessons she teaches is that you can transform any relationship, even if the other person isn’t willing to change. Really!
Warning: What you will learn from Stacey is radically different than most relationship advice you’ve heard before…

Stacey generously offered to give her “How to Forgive Anything” Program to Chris Beat Cancer subscribers. Please note, Stacey is intentionally raw and real in her courses and live events, not “polished and perfect”, because she wants her community (people in marriage crisis) to be real with her and to be able to freely express their thoughts and feelings without judgement. Adult language is used. If that offends you, I want to encourage you to choose not to be offended or to let that get in the way of the message. What’s worse, real talk with a little cussing or a divorce?

I also created a coaching program for cancer patients and anyone who is serious about prevention called SQUARE ONE. It contains the step-by-step strategies used by myself and many others who have healed cancer with a holistic approach using nutrition and natural non-toxic therapies.
