Philly J Lay brings back one of the most compelling voices in modern wellness for the latest episode of The Wellness Way podcast, welcoming Deryn Blackwell, widely known as “The Boy in 7 Billion,” for Part 2 of their extraordinary conversation. Deryn’s story is unlike almost any other, having faced not one but two devastating diagnoses, leukaemia at the age of 10 and later the exceptionally rare Langerhans cell sarcoma, and having come out the other side with a story that has captured the attention of millions around the world.
In the latest episode, Philly and Deryn take a deep and thoughtful dive into the history and science of cannabis, exploring how this often misunderstood plant became a pivotal part of Deryn’s battle against cancer. Rather than shying away from the complexity of the subject, Philly creates the kind of open, curious space that The Wellness Way is known for, allowing the conversation to move through the fascinating research, the cultural history, and the deeply personal ways in which medicinal cannabis intersected with Deryn’s healing journey. It is an episode that challenges assumptions and invites listeners to look at wellness from a genuinely new perspective.
Whether you are already familiar with Deryn’s incredible story or discovering it for the first time, the latest episode is essential listening for anyone curious about the intersection of science, nature, and the human will to survive. Philly J Lay continues to bring the conversations that matter most, and this one is not to be missed. Head over to phillyjlay.com to tune in today.
