Nobody Told Me: A Keynote on Breast Cancer, Impact, and Showing Up for Each Other
In this episode, I’m sharing something deeply personal—a keynote I delivered at the Thriving Beyond Breast Cancer Gala, an event dedicated to supporting women diagnosed with breast cancer in their 20s and 30s. As a survivor myself, this moment was emotional, meaningful, and powerful. The organization’s mission—offering medical stipends, peer support, and community—is a reminder that we all have the capacity to make someone else’s journey just a little bit lighter.
This talk, titled "Nobody Told Me," reflects on the things no one prepares you for when you're facing a life-altering diagnosis. It’s about the things you learn the hard way—and the grace, grit, and growth that come with them. But more than that, it’s a message about the ripple effect we can create when we choose to lift others up. Whether you’ve faced cancer, supported someone through it, or just want to show up in the world with more intention—this episode is for you.
If you're moved by this message and want to help make a difference, I’ve included a link in the show notes where you can support a woman navigating breast cancer today. Sometimes it’s the small, quiet acts of support that leave the loudest impact. Thank you for listening—and for showing up.
