This week we sit down with our dear friend and client, Jalisha, who opens up about her journey through breast cancer. She shares the raw truth—the fear, the faith, the laughter, and the lessons—that carried her through treatment.

Jalisha reminds us that it’s okay to not be okay, that humor can lighten even the heaviest days, and that true friends and community can hold you up when you can’t stand on your own. From advocating for herself in the healthcare system to finding joy in staying active, her story is proof of just how powerful resilience and faith can be.

  • Staying active gave Jalisha purpose and joy during treatment.
  • Self-advocacy and trusting your instincts are lifesaving.
  • Humor and faith can ease the weight of illness.
