About this listen
Ashley Baird shares her incredible journey as a breast cancer survivor, mother of five, and community builder who transformed her diagnosis into a mission to help others.
• Diagnosed at age 36 with stage 4 triple-negative breast cancer after finding a lump the day after Christmas
• Given only a 20% chance of successful treatment and a prognosis of approximately two years to live
• Fought through aggressive chemotherapy while parenting five children, including a three-year-old daughter
• Experienced what she describes as miracles throughout her treatment journey, including access to life-saving medications
• Created the nonprofit "Battle of the Breasts" to support women fighting breast cancer in her community
• Found deepened faith and spirituality through her cancer journey, learning to "nestle, not wrestle" with her circumstances
• Discovered that allowing herself to be vulnerable and accept help from others was one of the greatest challenges
• Transformed her perspective on parenting and life priorities, focusing on meaningful moments with her family
• Defied all medical odds to survive more than ten years after her initial diagnosis
• Continues to use her experience to bring hope and support to others facing similar battles
