About this listen

 Each month, we share a story from a Moffitt Cancer Center patient, family member, or even a Moffitt team member that illustrates how Moffitt transformed their experience in a positive, lasting, and often life-changing way. These stories highlight the difference we've been able to make when we deliver on the Moffitt PROMISE. All Moffitt team members commit to delivering intentional behaviors that create a culture of connection and care for our patients, their families and their fellow team members. Our team members bring about this intentional culture by demonstrating these specific PROMISE behaviors each day: Patients and Families First, Respect, Ownership, Make a Difference, I Care, Service, and Excellence.

    Michelle Maricic - More Than a Diagnosis
    Jan 16 2026
    This episode was the very first Pep Talks story recorded nearly five years ago and was originally shared only with our internal team members. As we look back on the heart of this podcast—stories of connection, compassion, and intentional care—we felt it was time to share Michelle’s story more broadly. Her experience reminds us that the fundamentals of patient experience never change: listening, presence, kindness, and hope. These are as important now as they were then, and her story continues to reflect the promise we strive to live every day.

    Ann Klein - It Broke My Heart In Beautiful Pieces
    Nov 21 2025
    In this week’s episode, we sit down with Anne Klein, a pancreatic cancer survivor whose journey reminds us just how powerful human connection can be in the midst of medical crisis. Anne walks us through the whirlwind of her diagnosis, the long days of testing and treatment, and the unexpected moments of compassion that carried her through — from a nurse practitioner who stopped to check on her heart, to a musician who played her into peace, to a team member who made sure she didn’t ring the bell alone. Her story is tender, honest, and full of the quiet heroism we see every day at Moffitt. It’s a reminder of how much it matters to notice people, to look them in the eye, and to bring your best self even on the hard days. Anne shows us that these small moments of care aren’t small at all — they’re life-changing. Let’s step into her story together.
