Thriving With Stage 4 Cancer: Integrative Healing, Hope & Radical Acceptance with Bethany Adair (My Guru Cancer) | Mermaid Musings with Tara Coyote

In this powerful and deeply inspiring episode, Tara sits down with longtime friend and author Bethany Adair, whose book “My Guru Cancer” chronicles her transformational journey living with Stage 4 breast cancer for the past decade.

Supplements I Used During Chemotherapy & Lessons from My Stage 4 Integrative Cancer Healing Journey | Mermaid Musings with Tara Coyote

In this deeply personal episode, host Tara Coyote shares her journey through stage 3 - and later stage 4 - hormone-driven breast cancer, reflecting on how she combined natural and conventional treatments to support her healing. After years of pursuing a fully natural path, Tara faced a life-or-death decision in 2019 when the cancer spread to her lung, liver, spine, bones throughout her body, and adrenal gland. Choosing life, she began nine months of chemotherapy while continuing to incorporate integrative healing practices, including key supplements, nutrition support, and acupuncture that helped her body recover and thrive. Please note: This video was recorded in April 2020. Against all odds, Tara was told she was NED (No Evidence of Disease) in the fall of 2022, which was an impossible feat considering it was all over her body. She continues to thrive to this day!  Disclaimer: Tara is not a doctor and is sharing her personal experience only.

Grief, Gratitude & Healing: Reflecting on the 10-Year Death Anniversary of Deb Hubsmith | Mermaid Musings with Tara Coyote

In this deeply personal solo episode of Mermaid Musings, host Tara Coyote reflects on the 10-year death anniversary of her beloved best friend, Deb Hubsmith, a visionary bicycle and pedestrian activist who passed away at just 46 years old from Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Tara shares raw and heartfelt reflections on grief, loss, and the strange passage of time - how Deb remains forever 45 in her memory. She opens up about the importance of naming and expressing grief in a culture that often avoids it, and how grief can coexist with gratitude and healing. Drawing from her own experiences of losing friends to cancer, facing her own Stage 4 cancer diagnosis, and grieving her parents while also embracing new gifts of life, Tara offers hope, honesty, and comfort to anyone navigating loss. This episode is a reminder that grief is not something to suppress - it’s something to honor, express, and transform.

Sustainable Living, Wild Horses & Climate Solutions with Stina Herberg | Mermaid Musings with Tara Coyote

In this inspiring episode of Mermaid Musings, Tara Coyote sits down with Stina Herberg, one of the visionary leaders at the Richmond Vale Academy ecolodge in St. Vincent, Caribbean.

The Healing Power of Friendship: Tara Coyote & Michelle Russi on Caregiving Through Stage 4 Cancer Together (Part 2)

In this emotional and deeply personal episode of Mermaid Musings, Tara Coyote opens up about one of the most defining periods of her life - her stage 4 cancer diagnosis - alongside her beloved best friend of 30+ years, Michelle Russi. Originally recorded in February 2020 and released for the first time in June 2024, this raw, unfiltered conversation captures the unwavering bond of friendship, resilience, and love in the face of life-threatening illness. Michelle was by Tara’s side through her darkest moments: from hospice referrals and painful chemotherapy to the miraculous recovery that followed. With deep gratitude, Tara reflects on Michelle’s six trips to Kaua’i in one year, her presence during the most grueling parts of treatment, and their decades-long journey as friends who met dancing to the Grateful Dead in Santa Cruz, with their young sons by their sides. This is more than a story of healing - it’s a tribute to the kind of friendship that carries you through your most difficult seasons.  Learn more about Tara’s journey healing from Stage 4 cancer in https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CP7Y2YCY/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_NDRZXXF3K6W087KQ4K9Z?linkCode=ml1&tag=windhorssanc-20‘Grace, Grit & Gratitude: A Cancer Thriver's Journey from Hospice to Full Recovery with the Healing Power of Horses [https://amzn.to/3xHnQHw]’ - a portion of the sale of each book will be donated to The Wild Beauty Foundation, an organization that works to raise awareness for the wild horses of North America (*I make a small commission when you order from this link!).
