Christine Anastos, Founder of Connect & Thrive, Inc. (CAT), joins the Radical Remission Project’s Stories That Heal podcast to share how her breast cancer diagnosis inspired the creation of a nonprofit dedicated to expanding access to evidence-based healing modalities and healthy living resources. Drawing on her background in environmental engineering and public health, Christine discusses the importance of supporting the whole person throughout the cancer journey and why she believes financial barriers should never prevent someone from accessing integrative care.
The conversation explores the inspiration behind CAT’s KittyFunds™ crowdfunding campaigns and CAT’s E-Gift Cards, which help friends, family, and coworkers provide meaningful financial support for cancer previvors, patients, thrivers, and caregivers. Christine also shares her vision for empowering individuals with trusted resources that complement conventional care and help them navigate healing with greater confidence, hope, and choice.
