Ishmael hosted the Breaking Barriers talk show and used it as a platform for his activism. He cited Ishmael's 2025 role in having the nation's highest award, the Trinity Cross, be replaced with the Order of the Republic of TT (ORTT).

"I would like to thank the oncology team in Trinidad and Tobago. They are an overworked team… but so many people who need oncology services cannot afford it and are now dying every day. I appeal to the Prime Minister and Health Minister to let this be priority and work together to get something done," he said.
