Sam Slocum, MBA’s Post

This was 5 of the most fulfilling moments of my life. As a 4-time survivor, I've carried at 𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒕 4x the survivors guilt. Not only, why do I get to live? But, why has my path been so easy compared to others? Yes - easy. Because everything is about perspective. In fact, even though I have heard those terrifying words, "you have cancer," 4 times - and have an active tumor taking up real estate in my neck - I didn't even like to talk about it, because my story is nothing compared to what others go through. Until I wrote a book and gained that perspective. I learned that I could use my experience as a way to inspire others. When I became a speaker and realized that by sharing what I went through - whatever I went through - can still let others know that they are not alone. And that has been my sole mission in the fight against cancer - to let those going through it, and all those touched by it, that they are not alone - and to honor and remember those we've lost along the way. And that's why I've joined Men Wear Pink - Tampa Bay to raise money for the American Cancer Society in the fight against breast cancer. Because I want to help - and this is how I can - and how you can, too. Hear me share my story to the American Cancer Society #aboa in support of the Hope Lodge: https://lnkd.in/ehBTEcSc Help me hit my fundraising goal and donate here: https://lnkd.in/eGasHWip #breastcancer #americancancersociety #menwearpink #cancer #cancersurvivor #perspective #mindset #tampabay

This month, I committed to walking 100 miles for Breast Cancer Now. 🎀 I initially assumed it would be manageable—just over 3 miles each day. But as the month unfolded, I quickly learned it wasn’t as simple as I’d imagined. Busy schedules, changing plans, and unexpected commitments turned what seemed like an “easy feat” into a real challenge. Here’s what I took away from this challenge: • 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁: It’s about adapting and making the effort, even on tiring days. • 𝗔 𝘄𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗱: A quick loop around the quays gave me time to unwind and reset. The fresh air and shift of pace helped me return to tasks with a calmer, clearer perspective.  • 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 “𝗯𝘂𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿” 𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀: Anticipate days when you may fall short of your goal and schedule extra mileage on flexible days to stay on track. Looking ahead, I’m excited to take on new challenges—not only to support worthy causes but to continue pushing my own limits. If you’d like to support, the link is below.  Every 10 minutes, a woman in the UK is diagnosed with breast cancer. 🎀  Breast Cancer Now provides crucial support and hope for a future without it.  Every bit helps—thank you to all who have contributed. 💗
