Women of color are constantly being ignored and underrepresented in all industries and business is no different. This September, For The Breast of Us, focused on #BaddiesinBusiness.
The idea of end of life decision planning can seem uncomfortable. However, it really is the last gift you can leave your loved ones.
Cancer, better known as the Big C, is a negative word altogether, however, I always try to find the positive in every negative situation.
It’s ok to be truthful about how you feel.
These are MY terms of being at peace living with Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC). Being diagnosed with Stage IV MBC at the age of 31 was not my form of peace, but I live and exist in purpose.
After lots of grounding and affirming, I had to fix my crown and remember who I am and whose I am!
We need to knock and kick down every door possible to let politicians know that this is unacceptable. Money does not need to be spent on making people aware of cancer – we do not need sunglasses and pop sockets and hats and pins.
We need research that produces real results!
I never could have climbed Mt. Whitney without everything I had learned from cancer. You see, the mountain didn’t prepare me for cancer. Cancer prepared me for the mountain.
When you have a soulmate, you can look beyond all of that and see the beauty and the creation that God designed just for the two of you.
I’m hoping to learn from all of this — each and every day moving forward, letting the universe do its thing, as I understand my purpose. I’d love to be able to speak to other women and help in any way I can.
