When Lauren Oggs Gee turned 50, she scheduled a routine colonoscopy—expecting nothing more than a check on her health. What followed was a shocking diagnosis: colon cancer. But what could have broken her instead became the catalyst for a bold new chapter of purpose.
In this powerful episode, Lauren shares how her unexpected cancer journey led her to document her story publicly—something that not only encouraged others to get screened but also launched her into an entirely new career as an influencer. With honesty, grace, and a deep faith in God, Lauren walks us through her radical career pivot, the emotional toll of a cancer diagnosis, and how obedience opened doors she never could’ve imagined.
She’s now living a life beyond her wildest dreams—but not without the detours. Lauren is a passionate advocate for early screening, and her story is a moving reminder that God often uses the most painful moments to birth the most purposeful ones.
Whether you're navigating a career change, walking through a diagnosis, or waiting for clarity, this conversation will encourage you to trust the process—and the God who writes every chapter.
