6d ago00:33:44Tap to summarizeEpisode Description Episode Title: What a Daughter’s Breast Cancer Taught Her Dad About Life What does a father learn when his daughter is diagnosed with breast cancer? In this deeply moving episode of the Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast, host Vicki Noethling welcomes back award-winning customer service consultant and author, Bob Furniss, for a conversation that is as heartfelt as it is transformational. Bob’s life changed forever when his daughter, Keesha, was diagnosed with breast cancer. What began as a family’s private battle became a public mission. Alongside his wife Susan, Bob co-founded Warrior Princess (www.warriorprincess.org), a nonprofit organization dedicated to educating young women—ages 25 to 45—about early detection and breast health awareness. Through his memoir and advocacy work, Bob shares a perspective rarely heard: the emotional journey of a father supporting his daughter through cancer. In this conversation, he opens up about the unexpected emotional challenges men and fathers face, the gaps in healthcare communication, and how this experience reshaped his understanding of love, strength, and purpose. Bob introduces what he calls “The Platinum Rule” — loving others as they wish to be loved — and explains how this philosophy transformed not only his family life but also his work in customer service and leadership. This episode is a powerful reminder that leadership begins at home, courage is often quiet, and awareness can save lives. In this episode, we discuss: • The turning point that transformed Bob’s life and mission • The emotional reality fathers experience during a child’s cancer journey • The Platinum Rule and how it elevates leadership and service • How healthcare providers can better support families • Why Warrior Princess focuses on women ages 25–45 • The challenges of writing a memoir through a father’s lens This conversation will move you, challenge you, and remind you that love—when expressed intentionally—can become legacy.
