Have you or a loved one been diagnosed with cancer? Are you feeling worried, scared, and uncertain about the future? Do you need encouragement, support and hope as you navigate this unexpected journey?
If so, I wholeheartedly understand, and I am grateful you are here. In this podcast you will learn scripture and principles to put into practice to help you keep your eyes, ears and mind focused on Jesus so that you will experience more peace within through your cancer journey.
My name is Shawn Elizabeth George. I am a wife, mother of three, dog mom to Georgia, and a follower of Jesus. In 2017, I was diagnosed with a rare salivary gland cancer, adenoid cystic carcinoma, when a tumor was found in my nasal cavity, growing into the roof of my mouth. From diagnosis and surgery through treatments with proton beam radiation and low-dose chemotherapy, I journaled about what I learned about God through my experience.
Why?
Because I believed that God uses all things for good, and if I made it through, I wanted to support others facing cancer, along with their families and friends, by sharing what I learned to encourage them. Throughout my cancer journey, using God’s Word as my cornerstone was transformational. I am grateful to be here to share what I have learned so that you can apply His Word through your journey as well and in turn be encouraged, feel supported and have hope.
I invite you to join me to…
Pause. Breathe. Pray.™
Let’s invite God in and embrace His Word to find peace during your cancer journey.  Now sit back, relax, and listen. Let’s take a step of faith together on this transformational, healing journey.
With love, care and hope,
Shawn

Hi, I’m Shawn Elizabeth George. I am a wife, mom of three, and a dog Mom to Georgia who loves Jesus. As a former Health, Physical Education, and yoga teacher I have always loved health and wellness! Yet much of my life I thought being healthy meant that if I looked good on the outside then I would feel well within. The interesting thing with that is when I looked my best on the outside, is when I was really struggling with anxiety and depression. And when I have felt the most peace within, was when I had cancer. Having these experiences made me rethink what health and wellness really are. When I stopped chasing the wind and following the current health and wellness trends and instead held on to scripture and what God’s Word says about the greater purpose of our minds, hearts, bodies and Spirit, it renewed my perspective on health and wellness.
I am here to share with you foundational truths from God’s Word that are tools you can use to help you be well and live healthier and more fully. I am excited to share this with you!
