Fox News
Brooke Burke, a former host on "Dancing with the Stars," was diagnosed with thyroid cancer after a routine check-up in 2012. Since her thyroidectomy, Burke has been cancer-free.
"I really do believe that it takes three weeks to start a new habit… that sticks and becomes a lifestyle," the former "Dancing with the Stars" host told Fox News Digital. "[It’s about] community connection and improving your personal consciousness. The meditation [component] is helping us on a daily basis get connected, stay motivated and get clear on our wellness goals." Stephanie Nolasco covers entertainment at Foxnews.com.
"I love the program – it’s my favorite one we’ve ever created," Burke added.
Burke’s dedication to fitness hits close to home. In 2012, the star revealed she had been diagnosed with thyroid cancer. She was already living with Hashimoto’s disease when her doctor discovered a questionable lump during a routine physical. An ultrasound and biopsies led to the diagnosis. Since her thyroidectomy, Burke has been cancer-free.
