After hormone-positive breast cancer, you have unique nutrition and lifestyle concerns.  

You worry about:

  • hormones in dairy
  • adding flax to your oatmeal
  • soy in your energy bar

Not to mention. . .

  • skipping your workout – will it make your breast cancer come back?
  • being well for your family – they need you to take care of yourself
  • knowing where to start – and staying motivated

Sound familiar?

  • “Estrogen” is in so many of the food choices you make every day, you feel like you’re doomed.

  • You try to make healthy choices, but feel like you slip back into your old ways that “probably” got you where you are now. 

  • You try changing your diet, but get tired of eating the same things.

  • Some months you cut out dairy, gluten and meat and exercise regularly, then you get off track. You worry it will make your cancer come back.

  • You’re looking for a “non-phytoestrogen foods” eating plan to help you lose weight – but you don’t even know what that is.

What to do?

There’s a mine-field of information out there.

It’s daunting to search through hundred’s of websites. Reputable recommendations get lost in all the noisy, questionable online advice. 

You’re trying to figure out what foods to shop for, how to lose some of the weight you gained with treatment, and do all you can to potentially decrease your risk of recurrence.

But you’re overwhelmed with choices, second-guessing your decisions, struggling to learn what’s best.

You know how crucial nutrition and lifestyle are to you being your best self and want guidance you can trust.

HIGHER GROUND can help you do all of that and more.

Cathy Leman, MA, RD

Dietitian. Personal trainer. Nutrition therapist.

That’s the professional experience.

My personal experience is that of a survivor of hormone-positive breast cancer.

I know first-hand how a healthy diet and consistent exercise can help you feel in charge of your health. Lifestyle choices matter now, more than ever.

I created HIGHER GROUND to serve as a trusted, quality source of information and support to help you rebuild and maintain your health, elevate your well-being, and optimize your self-care.

 Trouble Finding Credible Guidance?

You’re Not Alone. HIGHER GROUND is Here to Help.

There are many free online breast cancer support groups! Maybe you belong to one.

You know how they work.

Members seek guidance on soy, sugar, alcohol, strength training and lymphedema, how to stay motivated.

You may have these same questions.

Members share their own experience, but there’s no expert to monitor responses!

Now you’re even more confused. And misinformed. The solution?

MEMBER PRAISE!

I love your vision, high quality info and support. It’s so true that there is a lot of conflicting info out there. I’m glad to be here. Thanks, Cathy for creating this program.” 

- MS, Michigan, USA

I’m paying more attention to my nutrition (doesn’t mean I am always successful!), trying to vary my fitness routines, realizing that it is ok to occasionally take a “break” and give myself a mental/physical day off to recuperate.” 

- Peggy, Wisconsin, USA

If you’ve got a history of breast cancer, Cathy leads a positive, informative, supportive and research-based fabulous group. For me this is about putting the knowledge into practice in my own life, with support and encouragement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why pay for information i get free at my cancer center?

Pamphlets are great for basic information. They’re written by freelance writers, for “general breast cancer patient audiences.” But for specific questions about your diet or exercise program, you need deeper, targeted answers from someone with nutrition and lifestyle expertise, as well as having an actual breast cancer experience. 

Why wouldn’t I just ask my oncologist what I should eat and if exercise is ok?

Oncologists are trained to manage your medications, treatments and outcomes, but they’re not trained in nutrition and/or lifestyle. What happens when you have questions BETWEEN visits? Wouldn’t it be great to have 24/7 access to a health hub created and led by an experienced dietitian, nutrition therapist and personal trainer? 

I can find recipes, diet and exercise guidelines online, why wouldn’t I stick with internet searches?

You can search the Internet for all the online information you could possibly want. But who has that kind of time? How do you know what to trust? What’s your tolerance for overwhelm and data mining? Imagine having it all in ONE PLACE, updated regularly, and accessible 24/7.

My breast cancer isn't ER/PR+, can I still join?

Yes! My focus is ER/PR+ breast cancer, but I welcome ALL survivors of breast cancer. If you place high value on rebuilding your health after treatment, but need support, inspiration and information to get started and keep going. . .HIGHER GROUND is perfect for you. 

What if i join then decide it's not for me?

I want you to LOVE your HIGHER GROUND experience! After 30 days of participating in the LIVE master classes and my engaged community, if you don’t feel more inspired, motivated and confident taking charge of your survivorship health, I will refund your membership.

Why a membership versus my local cancer support group?

Great question! Here are 5 reasons.

1. Not every woman has access to a local support group.

2. Support groups often combine ALL types of cancer vs. solely breast cancer.

3. Some women don’t like returning to their treatment center for a support group.

4. Support groups are a hodge podge of topics and focus; HIGHER GROUND is 100% dedicated to nutrition and lifestyle.

5. You don’t have to go anywhere! You can participate from the comfort of your own home. As much or as little as you’d like. On your own schedule.
