When we figure out how to embrace and enjoy life, how to follow the path that leads us to joy, that leads us to creating our dreams, that leads us to building a vision and pursuing it, we have to realize a couple of things. One, I've just talked about. Life is not out to get us. This is just life. And life has lots of complexities and lots of moving pieces and lots of stuff happening at the same time. And learning about life is learning how to manage these things and still realize we have the power to choose our thoughts, choose joy, choose love, choose experiencing our emotions, choose learning how to process those emotions. This is an important part of creating a life that's better than before breast cancer.
Ever feel like life is just throwing curveballs your way? Laura Lummer knows that feeling all too well.

Laura gets real about the things we can't control—like life’s unpredictable challenges and other people's behaviors—and how these can make us feel sick if we let them. But here's the kicker: we do have control over our thoughts. She talks about how shifting from a mindset of victimization and struggle to one of opportunity and inspiration can be a game-changer.
Through practical tools like thought downloads and self-reflection, Laura guides listeners on how to recognize and release thoughts that no longer serve them. It's about choosing growth and joy, even when life feels unfair. And let’s be honest, who hasn’t felt that way at some point?
