Championing Early Detection and Proactive Health Strategies for Women
Let me tell you something about the women who SERVE. They show up tired.They show up unseen.They show up anyway. They serve with calloused hands and softened hearts. They rise when the world sleeps. They answer calls no one else wants to. They are nurses. They are soldiers. They are both. And this month—we give them their flowers. May Is Personal May …
One year ago, I took a leap of faith.Still healing from my own diagnosis.Still walking through the fire of recovery.Still holding on to hope like it was breath.

April isn’t just about blooming flowers and fresh starts—it’s also Stress Awareness Month, and that comes with a much-needed reminder: you don’t have to rush to heal, succeed, or be okay. As women, caregivers, professionals, and survivors, we often feel pressure to “bounce back,” “stay strong,” and “push through.” But let’s get real—the grind isn’t always holy. Sometimes, the most …
Every April, we recognize National Minority Health Month—but for so many of us, the disparities we’re highlighting aren’t new. They’re personal. They’re generational.

I’ve seen the gaps in access, the lack of …
At the heart of the 1MM Movement are the brave, beautiful women who don’t just raise awareness—they take bold action. This month, we are proud to shine a light on Angela White, our April 2025 1MM Champion. Angela was one of the very first women to make the 1MM Pledge—a commitment to prioritize her health by scheduling a mammogram. And …
In moments like these, the weight of time seems to slow down. As I sit here, reflecting on my sister’s journey, I can’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of pride.

As a caregiver, you often find yourself giving and giving, pouring your heart, energy, and time into the well-being of those who depend on you. Whether you’re caring for a loved one battling an illness, supporting someone through a difficult time, or simply helping someone navigate daily challenges, you are selflessly offering your strength and love. But here’s the truth: …
Ladies, I was deeply moved this week by a CNN report highlighting a staggering statistic: young women are nearly twice as likely to be diagnosed with cancer as young men. This news follows last week’s conversation on honoring our bodies through faith and healthy living. While we focused on strengthening ourselves physically and spiritually, it’s vital to remember that early …
Ladies, I’m stepping into 2025 with a renewed sense of purpose and excitement. After navigating my breast cancer journey and medical menopause, I’ve realized that living healthier isn’t just about the numbers on a scale—it’s about honoring the body that God gave us and finding joy in movement, nutrition, and rest. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the changes your body …
