Still I Rise Podcast
Featuring everyday Shereos sharing inspiring stories of how they persevered after a life- altering event.
Story Crafting is a program of You Night Empowering Events and the We Lift You Up Fund - a 501c3 public charity. Our primary focus is to address emotional healing and to help women find a path forward after a cancer diagnosis. However, future plans include stories of trials and triumph from every walk of life.
Thank you to our sponsor, Dr. Martha Stewart, Board Certified Dermatologist
Dr. Martha E. Stewart is board certified by the American Board of Dermatology and specializes in medical, surgical, and cosmetic dermatology for patients of all ages. Dermatology plays an important role in detecting and treating skin cancer. Skin cancer is almost always curable if detected and treated early.
Skin cancers vary in shape, color, size and texture, so any new, changed or otherwise suspicious growths or rashes should be examined immediately by a board certified dermatologist. Early intervention is essential to prevent the cancer from spreading.

Still I Rise Podcast
"Beauty and the Beast" by Yer Kue
An excerpt from Yer's story:
"I had to put back on my worn-out boxing gloves. As I got into the boxing ring for another round to fight this demon, I could hear my dad cheering for me in the crowd. I will keep on fighting for my life. I know that my boxing gloves will shield me and guard me against the horrible disease. My guiding light has always been my daughter and family. I know that my father was with me every hospital visit and treatment. I am not giving up this fight. I am a strong and mighty warrior.
The fact that I have overcome so much adversity in life helps me become the
beauty warrior I am. I learned to become patient with myself and take it one day at a time. I had cancer but cancer never had me. I have a second chance in life. I’m embracing my new warrior life. I believe my purpose is to help others go through what I went through. You are not alone. Never give up faith because you are worth it. Never lose hope and strive to be the strong person
you are. You are the Beauty within your Beast self. I am "Yer Strong."
