Beauty and Breast Cancer

The Beautiful Women Project is about the strength and beauty of women - one does not exist with the other.

This past week, one of our own was diagnosed with breast cancer. As she has throughout her life, she is facing this challenge with grace, courage, and beauty. I won't lie to any of you, she is frightened and confused, she has no idea what lies ahead, but she is facing this challenge with her head held high and her feet firmly planted in the ground. She is ready to fight. Nancy is drawing on the strength of her family, her friends, and those in her community that love her for who she is and the way in which she has touched their lives.

This amazing woman often thanks me for how The Beautiful Women Project has changed the way she sees herself as a woman, improved her relationships with her children and siblings, and opened her eyes to all of the good in her life. I see her quite often and have watched the transformation - she has embraced her beauty and continues to touch those in her life and community. She is more beautiful today than she was the day I met her and asked her to be a part of The Beautiful Women Project.

From this point forward, in her honor, any book purchased directly from the Beautiful Women Project web site will be donated to breast cancer organizations fighting the beautiful fight for women. Thank you for your support. Most importantly, I thank you for your thoughts and prayers for our Beautiful Woman.
