About this episode

Susan Stoffel shares her breast cancer journey, emphasizing faith, resilience, and the importance of community support.

A cancer diagnosis changes your life in an instant—but it doesn't have to steal your hope. In this deeply personal episode of Plans, Hope, and a Future , Susan Stoffel shares her breast cancer journey publicly for the very first time. Diagnosed with Stage 2 triple negative breast cancer despite living a healthy lifestyle and having no family history, Susan opens up about the fear, faith, and resilience that carried her through treatment to a diagnosis of no evidence of disease. Together, Jen and Susan discuss the importance of early detection, why women with dense breast tissue must advocate for themselves, and the "God winks" that reminded Susan she was never walking alone. They also explore the lasting emotional impact of cancer, the healing power of community, and what it means to discover who you are after trauma. Whether you're facing cancer yourself, supporting someone you love, or simply need a reminder that hope can be found even in life's hardest seasons, Susan's story will encourage and inspire you.
