My Journey to Just Live
Why I Can’t Share Everything About My Clinical Trial

Michelle has always promised to live her journey out loud — for her children, for herself, and for the community that’s grown around her. But with the start of her clinical trial, things feel different.


In this video, Michelle opens up about an important conversation with her team at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre. They discovered the reach of her platform — more than 35 million people tuning in each month — and reminded her that sharing this next chapter comes with extra responsibility.


She reflects on what it means to be, in her words, a “living experiment.” This trial could be her miracle, or it may not work at all. To protect the integrity of the process, she’ll need to be careful with what she shares: her treatment details, side effects, and even scan results.


Through it all, Michelle’s gratitude shines through — for her doctors, for her family, and for the incredible community that continues to cheer her on. She hopes you’ll understand the boundaries she has to set, and she’s thankful for every message, prayer, and bit of encouragement as she steps into this new chapter with courage and faith.

My Journey to Just Live
My Husband Is My Saving Grace Through Cancer

Michelle talks a lot about her cancer journey and wellness, but today she wants to share something even more personal — the man behind it all.


Her husband Ty has quietly, consistently, and lovingly been her rock. From making every single meal to guiding her through massive lifestyle changes after her diagnosis, to giving up alcohol for their family — he’s been there through everything.


In this video, Michelle opens up about how Ty’s background in fitness, wellness, and nutrition helped her shift from fast food to healing foods, and how they navigated their differences, soul-searched, and grew stronger together.


They’ve always said they were soulmates, but Michelle hasn’t often shared just how much Ty has shaped this journey with her.


She hopes this gives you a glimpse into the kind of man he is — and why she’s so grateful for him every single day.

My Journey to Just Live
The Reality of a Rare Cancer Community

Living with a rare cancer means being part of a small but powerful community. For Michelle, one of the most amazing things has been a Facebook group where people all around the world share what treatments work, what doesn’t, and how to live their best lives.

But with that support comes the hardest part: the death notices. They appear weekly—sometimes daily—and it’s heartbreaking to lose people she’s grown close to. Michelle shares the story of one woman who was diagnosed around the same time as her, someone whose passing “took her breath away” because they had just spoken days before.

She opens up about the process she goes through when she sees these notices, how she searches for answers, and the weight of realizing there are none.

This is the reality of a rare cancer community: connection, hope, and unimaginable loss.

My Journey to Just Live
The Judgment I Face With Stage 4 Cancer

Michelle made the decision to live her life out loud. She started sharing her journey for her children — so they’ll always have a place to see their memories, the life they lived together, and how hard she fought to stay alive.


But living out loud with cancer isn’t always easy. Michelle faces judgment she never expected, even from other cancer patients, and she carries the weight of survivor’s guilt. Some feel hurt when they see her celebrate what her body can still do. She never wants to cause pain, but has learned that every cancer is different, and every journey is unique.


This is Michelle’s truth. This is her journey to just live.

My Journey to Just Live
Why I Risked Going to the ICU for This Biopsy

Michelle shares the intense and emotional journey of taking the first step toward her clinical trial at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre in Toronto.


After being told she was accepted into the trial, she discovered she had no remaining tissue from her previous biopsy — putting her eligibility in jeopardy. In just 24 hours, the hope of a potential miracle nearly slipped away.


Determined to move forward, Michelle agreed to undergo another liver biopsy, despite her last one landing her in the ICU. She recounts the excruciating pain, the fear in her husband Ty’s eyes, and the relief of going home to her children instead of the ICU.

My Journey to Just Live
Being Diagnosed with Cancer Completely Shifted My Perspective on Life

Michelle shares the powerful perspective shifts that have changed her life since being diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. When faced with a terminal diagnosis, she realized that stress, judgment, and the small things she used to worry about no longer held any weight. Now, Michelle chooses to embrace the simple joys of life — dancing and singing in the car, embracing aging as a gift, and letting go of societal expectations.


This video is not about finding joy on easy days, but about choosing joy every single day, even through the challenges. Michelle reflects on how the small moments, once taken for granted, have become a source of immense gratitude. She hopes her story will inspire you to appreciate the things that truly matter and remind you that joy is always a choice.


It’s not always easy, but it’s always worth it.

My Journey to Just Live
How I Chase Joy Even with Stage 4 Cancer

In this video, Michelle shares the deeper reason behind her joy — and the choice to fight for it every single day, even while living with Stage 4 cancer.


People often ask her, “How can you smile like that? How can you chase joy when you know what you're facing?”

The truth is: she wasn’t always like this. But when she received a terminal diagnosis with three young children at home — including a newborn — she realized that stress and grief would take her faster than the cancer itself.


So she made a choice. Not to ignore the pain, but to acknowledge it, move through it, and reclaim her life in small, radical ways: dancing with her kids. Putting her hand on her heart. Creating a “living list” instead of a bucket list.


This isn’t a short glimpse into a good day. It’s a full, honest reflection of how she is choosing joy — even as grief shows up again and again.


She’s not here to tell you it’s easy. But she’s living proof that it’s possible.

And she hopes her story reminds you that you deserve joy too.

My Journey to Just Live
Why I Still Take My Son to Daycare — Even With Stage 4 Cancer

In this video, Michelle shares something she doesn’t often talk about — why she still chooses to send her son to daycare while living with cancer.


From the outside, people see her running, parenting, staying active — and they wonder why she doesn’t just keep her children home full-time. What they don’t see is what it costs her body to “chase joy” for 24 hours straight, or why school and daycare have become part of her healing, her rest, and her way of preparing her children for whatever the future holds.


Yes, Michelle has cancer. And yes, she sends her son to daycare. Not because she doesn’t want to be with him — but because she wants to give him something that will last, even if she’s not here. Routine. Joy. Connection beyond just her.


She’s faced a lot of judgment for that choice. Maybe you’ve felt that judgment too — or maybe you’ve questioned someone else’s choices. Michelle’s hope is that by sharing this part of her story, we can all move with a little less judgment, more open eyes, and lead with heart.


This is Michelle’s story. Yours may be different — and that’s okay.


🧡

If her words resonate with you, consider liking, sharing, or leaving a comment. It means more than you know.

My Journey to Just Live
The Conversation No Couple Wants to Have (But Should)

If I were to die tomorrow, would you move on to someone else?

That’s the kind of conversation Michelle and her husband Ty decided to have—openly and honestly.


Michelle is living with stage four cancer, but this isn’t just about her. In this video, she shares the raw, emotional conversations they’ve had as a couple—not just about her potential death, but also the possibility that Ty could pass first. Because the truth is, none of us know what’s coming.


They've talked about love, grief, remarriage, parenting, and what it means to support each other no matter what happens. Michelle shares why she gave Ty permission to move on after she’s gone, and how they’ve tried to prepare their kids for life’s hardest truths.


This isn’t a polished or easy conversation—but it’s a real one. And it might be the one you and your partner need to have too.

My Journey to Just Live
How I Navigate Survivors Guilt With Stage Four Cancer

Michelle lives with stage four EHE cancer—and she’s still running, still laughing, and still showing up. But with every breath of strength comes something she never expected: survivor’s guilt.


In this raw and reflective video, Michelle opens up about:


• Why she stopped asking “Why me?”


• How she manages survivor’s guilt while others around her struggle


• The emotional weight of thriving with terminal cancer


• Her belief in creating a living legacy for those who can’t


This is a message for anyone who’s survived something and wondered if they deserved to. It’s a call to live, not because life is easy—but because you’re still here.


Just Live.

My Journey to Just Live
Why I Said Yes to an Unfunded Clinical Trial | My EHE Cancer Journey

Michelle shares a raw and honest update about the next chapter in her rare cancer journey: starting an unfunded clinical trial for EHE.


This isn’t the path she imagined — but it's the one in front of her now. With the support of her care team and family, Michelle has made the decision to move forward with treatment, even though it comes with heavy financial and emotional weight. In this video, she opens up about the difficult choices behind that decision, the hidden costs of rare cancer care, and why she’s choosing to just live — without asking for more than she feels she can carry.


This video goes beyond medical updates. It’s about values, integrity, and what it means to hold space for your own life while thinking of others. Michelle speaks from the heart about the guilt she feels having a platform, the desire to preserve her dignity, and the ongoing tension between survival and surrender.


Topics covered include:


The high cost of unfunded clinical trials


Saying yes to treatment despite financial uncertainty


Why she’s not doing another GoFundMe (yet)


The emotional toll of rare cancer care


Practicing wellness and presence in the unknown


If you’re navigating illness, grief, or difficult decisions — this is a message of clarity, courage, and quiet strength.

My Journey to Just Live
How I Talk to My Kids About Cancer | What I’ve Learned as a Mom with Stage 4 Cancer

Michelle is living with stage four EHE—epithelioid hemangioendothelioma. But her story isn’t about dying. It’s about living out loud.


In this emotional, deeply honest video, Michelle shares how she talks to her children about her terminal diagnosis—what she tells them, what she holds back, and why honesty became the heart of her parenting.


She opens up about:


• Having tough conversations with kids at different ages


• How other children's experiences shaped her parenting choices


• Why movement, cold plunges, and laughter are part of her treatment


• The role her late son Gabriel plays in helping her children understand death with peace


This video isn’t just for parents or patients. It’s for anyone trying to live truthfully, even when life gets unbearably hard. Michelle’s story is a reminder that even when you don’t get to choose the hand you’re dealt, you can still choose how you play it.

This wasn’t just about fitness. It was about purpose, presence, and a promise Michelle made to herself: to keep living fully.

We cover it all:


The shakeout run through NYC


Training and last-minute prep with Meg Jacoby


Behind-the-scenes at the HYROX venue

And finally… completing HYROX as a couple


This is more than a race recap—it’s a story about what it means to live with intention, take ownership of your life, and show up even when it’s hard.

My Journey to Just Live
The Naturopathic Revolution: Redefining Cancer Care | JUST LIVE Podcast: Episode 003

In this episode, Michelle sits down with her oncology naturopath, Dr. Mark Fontes, for an intimate conversation about integrative cancer care.


Dr. Fontes opens up about his unique approach to supporting cancer patients, walking us through his compassionate process and the three foundational pillars he focuses on with every patient: sleep optimization, stress management, and purposeful exercise.


What makes this conversation so valuable is Dr. Fontes' genuine empathy and his ability to offer hope without false promises. Whether you're navigating cancer, chronic illness, or simply want to understand how to support your body's healing processes, this conversation provides practical and applicable insights, throughout.


Michelle and Dr. Fontes explore both her personal journey and broader educational topics, creating a relaxed yet informative discussion that our community of fighters, survivors, and supporters will find both encouraging and actionable. Topics covered included the vilification of sugar, ivermectin, the role exercise plays in cancer care and therapeutic compounds that have been helpful on Michelle’s cancer journey.


This isn't just about treatment—it's about living well while healing.

Guest: Dr. Mark Fontes, Naturopathic Doctor
