VIDEO 40. When Breast Cancer Threatens to Steal What You Want Most with Gillian Lichota

Welcome to this week’s episode of the Warrior Words podcast!

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month AND Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I WAS a victim of both and now I am a SURVIVOR. I am dedicating these five episodes in October to:

#StompOutBreastCancer
and
#StompOutDomesticViolence

This week, Gillian Lichota generously shared her incredible story of surviving breast cancer, the lessons she learned, and the journey those cancer lessons took her on. One of those lessons even led her to start a foundation for young women diagnosed with this horrible disease.

Check it out: During the month of October, we offer $200 off the cost of our 2025 Outdoor Adventure Trips. https://www.iriseabovefoundation.org/trips-retreats

Please share these episodes with people in your lives who need to hear them. You may just save a life...
