E22 | Survivor to Oncology Sales Specialist: Turning Pain Into Purpose

In this powerful episode of the Medical Sales U Podcast, I sit down with Nick Rich—cancer survivor, AYA advocate, and now a Senior Oncology Account Specialist at Pfizer. Nick opens up about his deeply personal journey from battling cancer to building a career in oncology sales, where he now helps bring life-saving treatments to patients fighting the very diseases he once faced.

We discuss how his diagnosis shaped his purpose, the pivotal moments that led him into medical sales, and how his fundraising team helped raise over $50,000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. You’ll hear the grit behind his transition from patient to professional, and how he channels his pain into purpose every day on the job.

Whether you’re in sales, healthcare, or simply looking for inspiration, this conversation will move you. Nick’s story is a testament to resilience, faith, and the impact of using your story to serve others.
