Still I Rise Podcast
"The Race and the Battle" by Denise Poe
In this powerful episode, we sit down with Denise Poe — a woman who has faced breast cancer three times and continues to stand as a living testimony of faith and resilience. Once an introvert who buried her struggles, Denise found strength in sharing her story, releasing the pain she carried, and embracing the healing power of community.
Through her journey, Denise discovered the truth of Scripture: “The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, but to the one who endures to the end.” Her story reminds us that with God, we can be warriors, conquerors, and overcomers — no matter the battle.
Join us as Denise shares her experiences of family, faith, and survival, and how she has turned every setback into a testimony of victory. This is more than a cancer story — it’s a story of hope, endurance, and living life with gratitude and purpose.
