Critics Review

There are only a handful of books that I recommend. Sophie Sabbage’s book, The Cancer Whisperer, just rose to the top of my list. It will guide you through self-discovery and empower you to create a healing milieu in your body, mind and spirit. - Daniel Kennedy Contreras, MC, Pyscho-Oncology Counsellor and Executive Director, Oasis of Hope Hospital

Sophie Sabbage is a force. The effortless beauty of her writing insinuates her powerful messages deep within the reader, and I found myself brought to tears with regularity. There is enough poetry, passion and purpose compressed into this small volume to propel you to reconsider every aspect of your life in the most fundamental way. Whilst aimed fairly and squarely at those with cancer, The Cancer Whisperer is also a ‘must read’ for family and friends who seek to understand the ‘inside experience of cancer and the ways which they can be a genuine support and help. - Robin Daly, Founder of the Yes To Life UK cancer charity

A beautiful love letter to cancer…one of the most moving and powerful books I have ever read…Genuinely amazing. - Tim Dingle BSc (Hons) MIBiol PGCE MBA Mediator, author, comedian and founder of Be Amazing Every Day

If you are one of us who have or has had cancer please read Sophie’s book. Hear the whisper that carries her wisdom that will enable you to let cancer heal your life. - Linda Brown, Chiropractor and breast cancer patient

Written with great intensity and economy, it is like a great book of poetry - an intimate companion in a time of fear, when clear-eyed, well-informed, uncompromising friendship is most appreciated. - Professor William Torbert, creator and author of Action Inquiry: The Secret of Timely and Transforming Leadership.

I’m bowled over by Sophie’s book. This is wisdom from a huge, generous heart and formidable intelligence. Profound, passionate, lucid, Sophie presents a new way of responding to cancer by attuning, going deeper, getting on purpose, making clear decisions about action and treatment…The Cancer Whisperer is a brilliant and inspiring guide, in fact, for all of us when we feel defeated by body, mind, illness or challenging life events. - Rosie Jackson, Author, B.A. D.Phil., creative writing teacher

Sophie, thank you for your implausible gorgeousness and generosity. I am sitting here blurry eyed with a snotty nose and red eyes after reading your… what? Story, book, life? I feel alive now…My soul gives great thanks to you for breaking my heart tonight. - Jason Harrison, Life Coach and Transformational Facilitator
