From Struggle to Strength

Candice Stinnett is a three-time Cancer Survivor of Stage 4 Non-Hodgkins lymphoma, she is also a Motivational Speaker, Community Servant, and Fitness Enthusiast. In this episode she shares the challenges of going through treatment and how she went from planning her funeral and crying everyday, with a young child, to inspiring people to live healthier lives by sharing her story. Candice is an excellent reminder to cultivate a positive mindset, take your health into your own hands and when you have a story to share, which we all do, it's important to share it. It might be just the thing that helps another person to heal. She recently began her own non-profit to give back to the Young Adult Cancer Community by hosting an annual event called MarCUREitas. Which has unfortunately been cancelled the last couple of years due to Covid. Website: candicestinnett.comFb & Insta: @candicestinnett
