Purpose didn’t come how I expected

Apr 14, 2026

After more than 30 years in the mortgage industry, I knew something in me was shifting.

So I prayed:

“God, show me my purpose.”

I didn’t expect that purpose to begin with a cancer diagnosis in 2024.

But when I heard those words, something changed in me. I understood what I couldn’t understand before.

People on the cancer journey need to be heard.

That realization became CancerWalk.
