Tracey sits down with breast cancer survivor and advocate Angel McCaskill to trace the path from a Stage II breast cancer diagnosis to a life of service through Earth Angel. Faith, practical choices, and clear boundaries turn fear into purpose while demystifying screening, treatment, and recovery.

• hearing “malignant” and anchoring in faith
• aggressive chemo plan, staging and response
• mastectomy and reconstruction choices explained
• maintaining normalcy during recovery and parenting
• praying season not sharing season as a boundary
• how mammograms work, dense tissue and callbacks
• waiting anxiety, portals and better questions
• hair loss, identity and unexpected resilience
• Earth Angel’s origin, community events and education
• From a Survivor’s Eye book and resources
• sustaining advocacy with rest, grace and support

Fall is the perfect season for a mental reset, just as trees release their leaves, we can let go of the mental clutter weighing us down through a simple three-step process.

• Simple three-step fall mental reset to help you release, reorganize, and recharge
• Step 1: Release - Do a brain dump to empty out all mental clutter onto paper without judgment
• Step 2: Reorganize - Identify your three most important priorities for this season
• Step 3: Recharge - Fill your mental space with activities that fuel you, like morning routines or movement
• Daily routines help regulate your nervous system and reduce decision fatigue
• Even small movements like a 10-minute walk can dramatically shift your mood and mental clarity
• Setting boundaries and saying no to what doesn't align with your priorities is essential

Writing a letter to my younger self created an unexpected space for healing, growth, and self-compassion. This reflective practice not only acknowledges how far we've come but also helps reframe past struggles as stepping stones to who we are becoming.

• Introducing sponsored segments highlighting women-owned and Black-owned small businesses
• Announcement of the Graced and Grounded Thailand retreat (October 22-30, 2026)
• Reading a personal letter written to my younger self from 10 years ago
• Exploring how past difficulties shape our current strengths and resilience
• Challenge to write your own letter to your younger self in just 5 minutes
• Invitation to share one line from your letter on Instagram or via email

Your past may have shaped you, but it does not define you. You have the power to keep writing your story, and the next chapters are going to be amazing.
