Power Over Pink Breast Cancer Survivor stories and health tips
by Power Over Pink
Sharing our survivor stories from Breast cancer gives us a voice in a voiceless system and helps equip others diagnosed how to fight the Battle Ahead. As we share we help others know how to fight, how to find hope, and how to advocate for themselves along the way. It helps you know that you can fight and do hard things too! As a survivor I found the health system left me feeling unheard, unseen, and dismissed. I turned to the internet to find the answers I didn't get from my health team. I found very little outside from medical facilities. This led me on the journey to give back and provide what I was searching for. What better way to know how to fight than to hear from others warriors who fought and won! It will look different for each person facing Breast Cancer, but you will not be alone. Connect with me on all other social media platforms as well.

Send us a textThis is MY story. I have shared many warrior stories on here and Youtube, and I filmed myself one day. It was kinda like therapy. I said some thing that surprised me!

So I started asking God how I could help....and Power Over Pink was born. It has been so healing for me to meet so many incredible warriors of Breast Cancer! Each has a unique story to tell that inspires Hope and healing in themselves and others! It's different when It's My story.

ABOUT THIS SHOW
Sharing our survivor stories from Breast cancer gives us a voice in a voiceless system and helps equip others diagnosed how to fight the Battle Ahead. As we share we help others know how to fight, how to find hope, and how to advocate for themselves along the way. It helps you know that you can fight and do hard things too! As a survivor I found the health system left me feeling unheard, unseen, and dismissed. I turned to the internet to find the answers I didn't get from my health team. I found very little outside from medical facilities. This led me on the journey to give back and provide what I was searching for. What better way to know how to fight than to hear from others warriors who fought and won! It will look different for each person facing Breast Cancer, but you will not be alone. Connect with me on all other social media platforms as well.
