In this powerful episode, I sit down with Pastor Jacinta Mullins of Broad River Church in Norwalk, CT—a woman of deep faith, incredible resilience, and radical joy. We dive into her journey from stepping into ministry to surviving three separate cancer diagnoses.
Pastor Jacinta opens up about the emotional highs and crushing lows of walking through illness, how her relationship with God sustained her, and why every woman needs to be taking their health seriously—especially when it comes to dense breast tissue and early detection.
She doesn’t hold back when it comes to calling out the broken parts of the medical system and reminding women that they must advocate for themselves. If you or someone you love has ever battled illness—or if you just need a reminder of God’s faithfulness—this episode is a must-listen.
