Listen Later

How two BAMR Breasties crushed epic goals post-diagnosis


Prepare to be moved and motivated by this episode, featuring two breast cancer survivors and BAMRs. Dimity and Sarah WF chat with Lara Johnston and Bren Willhite, who each share their inspiring breast cancer journey—and the epic accomplishments that followed. In this episode, we cover: 

  • How Lara’s simple goal of “forward movement” through treatment and surgery led her to the finish line of the Disney World Marathon. 
  • How Bren’s sunny outlook on life helped her power through her darkest days—and through an Ironman triathlon.
  • Lara and Bren’s advice for women enduring their own cancer battles—and tips for what to do when you want to support others. 


    • When you shop our sponsors, you help AMR.

    We appreciate your—and their—support!
