Our Story

Built from lived experience.

ThriveThroughCancer was born not in a boardroom or in a hospital, but at home caring for someone in a journey of cancer — from the belief that every person facing cancer deserves a guide who truly understands the journey.

About Your Coach

Meet Renny Letswalo

After watching her mother-in-love navigate cancer treatment with little guidance beyond clinical care, Renny dedicated her career to filling that gap. Researching on lifestyle factors supportive of individuals on a cancer journey and developed evidence-based Physical, Emotional, Mental, and Spiritual techniques. She further pursued studies in Root Causes of disease and Psycho-Oncology.

Her simple belief is — When people are empowered with knowledge and support they are able to draw from within to thrive in whatever situation they face. This is no different for anyone going through Cancer.

What We Believe

Our guiding principles

Whole-Person Care

Cancer affects every dimension of life — body, mind, emotions, relationships, and spirit. We address all of it, never in isolation.

Evidence-Based Methods

Every strategy is grounded in current research, functional medicine principles and psycho-oncology best practices.

Radical Engagement

You are not a diagnosis — you are a whole being with inherent health to allow you to not only survive but thrive through cancer.

Practical Empowerment

We teach and share tools you can use — on hard days, in waiting rooms, and in the quiet moments between appointments.

It is a compassionate, guided journey toward wholeness at every phase of the cancer journey.

Infused with Spiritual Science of prayer and meditation driving the support of the whole person's healing.
