Justine Laidlaw

Colon cancer survivor and Integrative Cancer Coach from New Zealand, Justine Laidlaw helps people facing cancer release fear, reconnect with hope, and discover the deeper emotional and lifestyle shifts that support healing.

In 2013, at the age of 45, Justine was diagnosed with aggressive Stage 3 colon cancer. After surgery, she made the courageous decision to decline the recommended chemotherapy, choosing instead to follow a holistic healing path focused on supporting her body’s natural ability to heal.

This decision became the catalyst for a profound transformation in her life. Moving beyond fear and uncertainty, Justine embraced deep lifestyle changes and a powerful shift in mindset, focusing on healing across the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual aspects of life.

Today, more than a decade later, Justine is thriving and cancer-free, and her experience now forms the foundation of her work supporting others navigating their own cancer journey.

Based in Tauranga, New Zealand, Justine works with people locally and internationally as an Integrative Cancer Coach, supporting individuals facing all types of cancer who are seeking a more holistic and empowering approach to healing.

A central focus of her work is guiding people through the emotional and life transformation that often accompanies a cancer diagnosis, helping them explore stress, unresolved emotions, beliefs, and life patterns while reconnecting with their inner resilience and capacity for healing.

Justine co-facilitates Radical Remission workshops for participants across New Zealand, Australia, and the United States, based on the research of Dr. Kelly Turner.

Together with fellow Radical Remission coach and incurable cancer thriver Jenny Kennedy, she also co-facilitates the coaching program “Healing Cancer Beyond Medicine,” supporting participants to explore the emotional, mental, and spiritual dimensions of the healing journey.

Through her work, Justine helps others rediscover hope, empowerment, and the possibility of healing beyond medical predictions.
