Pain into Purpose

Turning pain into purpose

I lost my mom to breast cancer 22 years ago. Her journey is what inspired me to write "The Mastectomy I Always Wanted." My vision is to support women making decisions about a mastectomy and reduce fear.

If she had a mastectomy from the beginning of her diagnosis, she would most likely be here today. I spent years healing that wound and accepting what happened. Today, I feel grateful I learned the lessons, powerfully chose my mastectomy, and shared the journey.

Thank you to all supporters who believed in this book and allowed me to take that pain into purpose.

What is the small voice calling you to do next? Reflect on that question and write back to me. I’d love to listen.

If you are a breast cancer survivor and would like to support others, there is a new section on my website to share your story. Check it out!
