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
“Standing at the Plate of Life” by Anna Duncan
An excerpt from Anna's story:
"Like a runner rounding the bases, I celebrated each small victory along the way. I cherished the moments of normalcy, the laughter and love that filled my home. I found solace in writing, pouring my heart into a memoir that would one day inspire others who were facing their battles.
The support of my family and friends has been my dugout, a sanctuary where I can rest and recharge. They are my cheerleaders, my coaches, and my teammates. Together, we form an
unbreakable bond, a team that will not be defeated. The journey has been arduous, filled with both triumphs and setbacks. But through it all, I have learned the importance of resilience, perseverance, and faith. Like a baseball game, life is unpredictable. There will be times when we strike out and times when we hit the ball out of the park. But it is in the face of adversity that we discover our true strength and purpose.
I am filled with gratitude for the many lessons I have learned. I have learned the importance of determination, the power of faith, and the transformative nature of love. I have learned that even in the face of adversity, we can rise above our circumstances and become a source of inspiration for others. For in the grand scheme of life, it is not the number of home runs we hit that matters, but the way we play the game."
