Empower, Inspire, & Uplift Women in Their Wellness
Dear Friends,
Welcome to the Women's Wellness Weekend, an event that's much more than a glamorous weekend—it's a journey of transformation, inspiration, and hope.
I'm Cierra Johnson, the founder of Fighting Cancer Today, and I want to share a deeply personal story that inspired this remarkable initiative.
At the age of 29, my world was shaken by a cancer diagnosis. At that moment, I didn't understand the urgency of prioritizing my health. A year of uncertainty slipped by, and by the time I sought help, it was too late. I was facing a stage-four breast cancer diagnosis in 2019. It was a life-altering moment that reshaped my perspective.
This experience lit a fire within me. I vowed that no other woman, mother, daughter, or wife should endure the same path of delay and regret. The Women's Wellness Weekend is the result of that promise—a commitment to ensure that no woman overlooks the importance of their well-being.
Your presence at our Women's Wellness Weekend will resonate deeply. It will inspire women to take charge of their health, advocate for their well-being, and seize every precious moment they have. Together, we can turn the tide against the relentless adversary that is cancer.
Thank you for considering our mission. Let's make a profound impact on the lives of countless women in our community.
Warm regards,
Cierra Johnson
CEO & Founder, Fighting Cancer Today
