Meet the hosts behind LUNGevity Foundation's new podcast, Lung Cancer Voices of Hope. In this introductory episode, Ann Steagall and Dr. Misty Shields share their personal and professional connections to lung cancer and what led them to this work.

Ann reflects on more than 30 years as a thoracic oncology nurse supporting patients across care settings, and Dr. Shields shares how her father’s diagnosis shaped her path to becoming a thoracic oncologist and physician scientist. They also share what listeners can expect from the podcast, including patient stories and expert insights to help navigate a lung cancer diagnosis.

"Hope is really here to stay."
