What happens when breast cancer collides with purpose—and a woman decides to fight for more than just herself?

In this unflinching episode of All Talk Oncology, Kenny Perkins welcomes the fierce and faith-filled Sherell Kinsler, a Stage 4 metastatic breast cancer survivor, founder of Cherish Moments Inc., and passionate advocate for community health. Diagnosed during the pandemic with one of the deadliest forms of cancer, Sherell takes us deep into her journey—from fighting for a proper diagnosis, to losing her father to prostate cancer, to building a nonprofit that gives women hope in the form of wigs, rides, and prayer.

With raw vulnerability and spiritual clarity, she shares the emotional toll of losing her breasts, choosing not to reconstruct, the harsh realities of chemo, and how she kept showing up for others even in her own storm.

Whether you’re in treatment, caregiving, or simply trying to make sense of your own pain, this episode reminds you: there is purpose in your fight.
