The Cancer Iceberg

Doctors treat the diagnosis. Nobody treats your family.When a child is diagnosed with cancer, the medical system locks in on the patient. But the crisis doesn't stay in the hospital room. It follows the family home. It sits at the dinner table. It shows up in the marriage, in the siblings, in the bank account, in the things nobody says out loud for months.The Cancer Iceberg is a podcast about the 90% of the pediatric cancer journey that lives under the waterline. The emotional fallout. The financial destruction. The sibling who disappears into themselves. The relationships that go quiet and the systems that were supposed to help but don't.Every episode is an investigation. We sit down with family therapists, social workers, researchers, and families who've been through it. We ask the questions nobody asked them at the time. And we turn what we find into tools that families can actually use — not pamphlets, not affirmatio

    Introducing The Cancer Iceberg

    When your child gets a cancer diagnosis, the hospital takes over the medical side. They're good at it. But the rest of the crisis — the financial spiral, the siblings who learn to be invisible, the marriage going quiet, the mental health emergencies that don't announce themselves until later — that part is yours to figure out. Mostly alone. Mostly without a guide.The Cancer Iceberg is a podcast built to change that. We're a team of researchers, designers, and cancer parents investigating the 90% of the journey that lives under the waterline. We talk to the experts. We talk to the families. And we turn what we find into resources that should have existed all along.Subscribe now.
