For this week’s Mindset Monday — and with October being Breast Cancer Awareness Month — my amazing wife, Melissa, wanted to share her story:
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month — a time that means so much to me. Hearing “You have breast cancer” changed everything. I couldn’t control the diagnosis or the treatment, but I could control how I showed up. Long before that moment, I had made a commitment to take care of myself — to move, to eat well, to rest, to build a strong mindset. I didn’t know it then, but that commitment would carry me through the hardest season of my life.
Some days, movement was just a slow walk or a deep breath. Fatigue was constant, but showing up in small ways reminded me I was still here. My loving husband and coach, David, stood beside me, adapting, encouraging, and helping me hold on to my strength.
Cancer changed me. It made me stronger, more intentional, and fiercely protective of my health and happiness. Fitness isn’t something I “have” to do, it’s something I get to do to live a joyful life.
To those fighting now: you are stronger than you think. Small steps count. Lean on your people. Keep showing up. Cancer is part of my story, but it doesn’t define me. I’m not just a survivor — I’m a thriver. 💪🏼💗
