From This Point Forward: Craig Sotkovsky’s 9/11 Cancer Journey and Mission to Give Survivors a Voice

from Peace Love and Bring a Bat · host David Chametzky

From This Point Forward: Craig Sotkovsky’s 9/11 Cancer Journey and Mission to Give Survivors a Voice Uncle Dave welcomes Craig Sotkovsky, a 9/11 World Trade Center volunteer, cancer survivor, patient advocate, and mental wellness advocate, to discuss the life-changing consequences of answering the call to serve at Ground Zero. Craig shares how exposure at the World Trade Center contributed to lung cancer, Barrett’s esophagus, GERD, PTSD, memory loss, financial devastation, divorce, and years of painful medical complications and misdiagnoses. Rather than allowing those experiences to silence him, Craig has chosen to become a voice for the tens of thousands of responders, volunteers, survivors, veterans, and cancer patients who continue to suffer physically, emotionally, and financially. He explains his upcoming RV for Cancer journey, which will take him through approximately 25 cities to interview survivors, document their experiences, advocate for mental health, and remind people that isolation, fear, and illness do not have to become the end of their stories. Craig and Dave also discuss resilience, heart-and-brain coherence, the importance of controlling our internal dialogue, and the power of moving forward instead of remaining trapped by the past. Craig closes with his powerful “Message to Humanity,” encouraging listeners to become courageous, relentless, aligned, instinctive, and committed to growth. His guiding mission is simple: disturb the comfortable, comfort the disturbed, and live from this point forward.
