Who we are

You deserve more than a treatment plan for your cancer.
You deserve a team focused on the “Whole You.”

In today's era of personalized medicine, cancer treatments are more advanced than ever. But even the best plan can't hold your hand through the fear. It can't sit with you at 2am when the questions won't stop. It can't turn the overwhelming complexity of a diagnosis into something you can actually use.

That is the gap we were built to close — a world-class cancer navigation service aligned with the most advanced clinical science with the most powerful mind-body healing, walking beside you at every step, inside the clinic and beyond it. We don't replace your doctors; we complete what they can't provide.

We complement your medical care. We help you navigate with confidence, and heal from the inside out.

Our approach

The Dual Empowerment Pathway —
two programs, running in parallel.

While your medical team treats the cancer, we focus on you: the whole person facing it. Two powerful, personalized programs run side by side, so your body, your mind and your decisions are supported from diagnosis through survivorship.

Two programs · one journey · in parallel
Pillar 01 · Clinical

Treatment navigation

The science, translated and made yours.
  • Science-backed insight on your specific diagnosis and treatment options
  • Independent guidance weighing the risks, benefits and costs of every path
  • Expert support exploring clinical trials and emerging therapies
  • Complex oncology — decoded, clarified, made actionable
Pillar 02 · Mind-body

Mind-body program

The healing medicine alone can't provide.
  • Evidence-based breathwork, meditation and guided imagery, tuned to your stage
  • Real ways through the fear, anxiety and uncertainty of a diagnosis
  • A resilient, steady mindset, built across treatment
  • Energy, peace and inner strength, rebuilt from the inside out
Poised to Conquer

Both programs. Both personalized. Running side by side — every step of the way.

Why it works

Patients who do well through cancer tend to share three things.
We help you build all three.

01

Understanding

Patients who genuinely grasp their diagnosis and their options make better decisions, feel more in control, and carry far less anxiety.

Clarity changes outcomes.

02

Resilience

Stress hormones suppress the immune system — that's well established — and evidence-based mind-body practice helps reverse it.

A calmer mind is part of how the body heals.

03

Support

Patients who feel genuinely supported — emotionally, practically, spiritually — stick with treatment better and come out stronger.

No one should carry this alone.

My doctors are shocked by my response. I'm disease free — and more at peace with my life than I've ever been.

Who we serve

Cancer doesn't only happen to one person.
We're here for everyone it touches.

From the person diagnosed to the people who love them, we're a steady hand for the whole circle a diagnosis pulls in.

Cancer patients

From diagnosis through survivorship: clinical guidance, a personal mind-body program, and a team that walks every step with you.

Connect with us →

Caregivers

The people who love someone with cancer carry a weight no one sees. We give them the knowledge, tools and support to show up fully — and look after themselves too.

Connect with us →

Employers

When someone valued is diagnosed, a whole organisation feels it. We help forward-thinking employers offer real cancer support as a benefit.

Connect with us →

Physicians & partners

A trusted pair of hands for your most complex cases. We handle the research, the coordination and the human support, so you can focus on the medicine.

You're not just healing.
You are poised to conquer.

You don't have to work this out alone.

Let us walk it with you — the science, the experience, and a steady human presence — so you can do more than get through it. So you can conquer it.

Our approach

The Dual Empowerment Pathway.

A science-backed, compassion-driven program that empowers you through every stage of the cancer journey — two personalized programs running in parallel, so your body, mind and decisions are all looked after, from diagnosis through survivorship.

Why it matters

If you'd use an advisor for your wealth,
why not for your health?

Modern cancer treatment is more advanced — and more complex — than ever. Precision medicine, guided by NCCN (National Comprehensive Cancer Network) standards, is powerful, yet the standard of care still varies and outcomes still differ. The science is clear that other factors matter too. That is the space we work in.

Poised to Conquer

Both programs. Both personalized. Running side by side — every step of the way.

Every stage

By your side from the first scan to life on the other side.
Supporting the “Whole You.”

1
Diagnosis

The day everything changes

We're in from the start — helping you understand exactly what you're facing, see your options clearly, and begin your mind-body practice straight away. You won't have to make sense of it alone.

2
Active treatment

The hardest stretch

We're with you through the appointments, the decisions, the side effects, the fear. Clinical guidance and daily support, every single day.

3
Recovery

Treatment ends; the work doesn't

We help you rebuild — physically, emotionally, spiritually — with a program made to bring back your energy and your sense of yourself.

4
Survivorship

Its own chapter

Life after cancer is its own chapter. We help you step into it steady, well, and equipped to stay that way.

The current state of cancer care

Advances, and the gaps that remain.

Treatment has never been more advanced — or more complex. Here's where things stand, and the gap we exist to close.

01
The challenge

The science has outpaced the patient

Cancer and its treatment have grown extraordinarily complex, leaving patients overwhelmed and unsure of their options — while care teams rarely have the time to close that gap.

The science is advancing; patients are falling behind.

02
The promise

Precision medicine, at its best

Personalized therapies, guided by NCCN standards, now tailor treatment to a tumour's biology — targeting cancer more precisely, with fewer side effects.

Targeted treatment. Better odds. Fewer harms.

03
The gap

Biology is only part of it

Even with the best guidelines, outcomes vary — and addressing the cancer alone leaves the person without the clarity, support and steadiness that healing also asks for.

Patients need more than medicine.

01

A clear understanding of their treatment

Patients who genuinely grasp their diagnosis and their options make better decisions, feel more in control, and carry far less anxiety through treatment.

Clarity provides confidence and changes outcomes.

02

Optimism, emotional and mental resilience

Stress hormones suppress the immune system — that's well established — and evidence-based mind-body practice helps reverse that response. Mind shapes body, harnessing the powerful connection between emotional well-being and physical health.

A calmer mind is part of how the body heals.

03

An environment that nurtures healing

Patients who feel genuinely supported — emotionally, practically, spiritually — stick with treatment better, live better through it, and come out stronger.

No one should carry this alone.

Medicine looks after the body. We make sure the mind and spirit are in it too.

Our pillars to success

Four ways we close the gap.

Patient navigation

Personalized, stage-specific guidance through every phase of your cancer journey.

Clinical & research-driven insight

Science-backed, data-driven reads grounded in the latest clinical literature.

Mind-body program

Evidence-based breathwork, meditation and holistic tools to restore resilience.

End-to-end emotional support

Compassionate support from diagnosis through survivorship. You are never alone.

Built on the evidence

Held to the standards oncology itself uses.

Everything we recommend is grounded in published research and the same guidelines your care team works from. We don't improvise on cancer.

Stories

Changing the course of care.

Real people we've walked beside — through cancer, through fear, through the long work of getting well. These are their words.

"After six months of intensive medical care, a radical diet change, breathwork and hypnosis, the doctors are shocked by my response to treatment. I am now disease free and feel more at peace with my life than ever before."

Tamara Dempsey
Disease-free after treatment

"There are not many people who have truly impacted my life the way Neha has. She weaves spirituality, breathing techniques, corporate acumen and neurological science into an easy-to-understand routine — all without medication. Life changing."

Miles Kirkpatrick
GM & Principal Investor, BlueBird Holdings

"My chronic physical pain subsided, my migraines ceased, and I healed from past trauma. Today, I know who I am, what I need, and that I am enough. Thank you, Neha. I am so grateful."

Yvette Kloubochur
Miss Poland 1990

"I finally felt a glimpse of joy and happiness after too many years in the dark. The morning after our last session was probably one of the best in many years. I am so incredibly grateful and lucky to have found you."

Marko Tesanovic

"Since I started working with Neha, my sleep has improved and I feel more positive and peaceful throughout the day. Anyone with chronic pain, stress, anxiety or depression would benefit from her expertise. Her enthusiasm is infectious."

The founders

Two women.
One very specific gap.

Poised to Conquer was started by two women who spent their careers on the front lines of cancer — one in the research lab, one in the healing room — and who kept running into the same gap between them.

Dr. Nicole Liadis
Co-founder · PhD Molecular Biology
— Co-founder · Cancer navigation

Twenty years translating
the science of cancer
into something a patient
can actually use.

Nicole brings over 20 years of cancer research, education, and patient advocacy to everything we create. With a Ph.D. in Molecular Biology and Medical Biophysics, she has spent her career translating the complex science of cancer into something patients and families can actually understand and use.

She knows what it feels like to sit across from someone drowning in fear and information at the same time — and she knows that having one without the other is never enough.

PhD · Molecular Biology
20+ yrs Oncology
Patient Advocacy
— Co-founder · Mind-body healing

Fifteen years of helping
people find calm in
the middle of chaos.

Neha brings 15 years of clinical nutrition, neuroscience, breathwork, meditation, and therapeutic yoga — and more importantly, a deep understanding of what it means to help someone find calm in the middle of chaos.

She has worked with patients around the world facing cancer and other life-altering diagnoses, helping them rebuild a sense of control, peace, and possibility from the inside out. Her voice is the one inside the recordings.

— In their own words

Together, we designed Poised to Conquer — a program built to walk alongside cancer patients at every single step of their journey. The medicine exists. The care teams exist. But the bridge between the clinical and the deeply human — that was missing. We built that bridge.
