44. Unexpected Opportunities: Trusting God Through The Unknown with Lexie Appleby

Today's episode is a special one both for me personally and for the month we are in. As most of you know, October is breast cancer awareness month and as we wrap up October, I'm so grateful for the opportunity to introduce you to my sweet friend Lexie Appleby who is a breast cancer survivor and advocate. Breast cancer has touched my life as my mom was diagnosed with it in October of my junior year of high school and passed away after a brief battle in June of the following year. So this episode is special for me in so many ways.   Lexie's story is one that is full of chasing dreams and finding herself on top of the world only to have it all come crashing down with the news of her breast cancer diagnosis. In that moment, by God's grace, she made the crucial choice to see this diagnosis not as a burden but as an unexpected opportunity from the Lord to use her story in ways only He could. She takes us on her incredible journey today through the pageant world as an NFL cheerleader and now as an influencer and speaker through her Born To Sparkle Brand.   If you find yourself wrestling with unexpected news or suddenly in an unplanned season, you will be encouraged as you hear Lexie share her story of God's faithfulness through her journey and the reminder that He does not break His promises to lead us to His calling and purpose for our lives.   So pull up a seat, grab a cup of coffee and enjoy hearing from my sweet friend, Lexie Appleby.   For more information on Lexie and Born to Sparkle, visit https://www.instagram.com/lexie_appleby/?hl=en
