We need laughter in #cancerland...Daniel G. Garza Brings It!

Bringing Laughter to #cancerland

Daniel G. Garza continues to cut up cancer audiences and other health audiences with his hilarious takes on the edgiest topics. He is fearless, relatable, and a healer at heart.

Daniel is an anal cancer and HIV survivor whose lived experience fuels his mission to uplift and educate others.

As the founder of LilMesican Productions Inc., Daniel creates spaces for storytelling, coaching, and advocacy, especially for Latinx, LGBTQIA2S, and health-challenged communities.

His work with Cheeky Charity raises awareness of anal and colorectal cancer, and his background as a Reiki Master, Transpersonal Coach, and comedian allows him to blend healing and humor in transformative ways. Through workshops, public speaking, and creative media, Daniel inspires others to reclaim their dignity, embrace their power, and live with purpose.

About the Podcast

Man Up to Cancer
The show built for men facing cancer, and the people who love us!
I'm your host, Trevor Maxwell. I'm a stage IV colon cancer survivor, and I've got a message for other men: You don't have to go through cancer alone.

On the Man Up to Cancer podcast, you can expect raw, unfiltered conversations about men, cancer, and our experiences. My guests will be other patients, survivors, advocates, health experts, and friends from #cancerland.

We'll tackle a wide range of topics including cancer screenings, chemo, friendship, scars, sex and intimacy, grief, and the physical suck-fest of cancer. But .. PLOT TWIST.. we're also going to joke, laugh, and have fun.
