Yet I Will Rejoice: Lauren's Story with Early Stage Breast Cancer and Metastatic Recurrence (ER+/HER2-)

In this episode, I sit down with Lauren Delk, who was diagnosed with breast cancer at just 29—right in the middle of wedding planning. What followed was a whirlwind of treatments, a beautiful marriage, and eventually the joy of motherhood. But eight years on, Lauren received news no one wants to hear: metastatic breast cancer.

Through every twist and turn, Lauren’s story is one of deep faith, strength, and surrender. She shares how she’s learned to trust God’s provision, lean into His presence daily, and live fully in the moment—even with so many unknowns. Her insights about gratitude, motherhood, and building a strong support system will inspire anyone walking through a hard season.

Whether you're facing cancer yourself or walking with someone who is, I pray Lauren’s voice reminds you that joy, peace, and purpose are still possible—even here.
