Broken. Rebuilt. Unstoppable.
After 23 years of routine mammograms, LeAnita Ragland-Brooks discovered her own breast cancer. She followed every treatment plan only to learn it had progressed to Stage IV metastatic breast cancer, and she was also living with lymphoma. She refused to let it define her.
Survival Is My Superpower is a powerful and deeply human story of courage, resilience, leadership, and faith. It is a testament to what is possible when life changes without warning and a reminder that survival is about more than enduring-it is about rising stronger.
An executive leader who spent more than three decades building award-winning, high-performance teams, Ragland-Brooks was first diagnosed with Stage III Invasive Lobular Carcinoma, a form of breast cancer that is often difficult to detect on mammograms. She faced her diagnosis with discipline, determination, and unwavering faith.
She endured surgeries, chemotherapy, radiation, medication, and every prescribed treatment protocol. Then the unimaginable happened. Despite aggressive treatment, the cancer progressed to Stage IV metastatic breast cancer-an incurable diagnosis. Soon after, she learned she was also living with lymphoma.
What could have become the end of her story became the beginning of a profound transformation.
Drawing on more than three decades of leadership experience, Ragland-Brooks approaches diagnosis the way great leaders approach crisis-with strategy, clarity, and the conviction that even devastating challenges can become catalysts for growth. Through raw storytelling, affirmations for medical events, and the mindset framework she calls the S.U.P.E.R.P.O.W.E.R.™ Methodology, she offers readers practical encouragement for navigating life's most difficult seasons.
Inside this inspiring and empowering book, readers will discover:
• How to navigate Stage IV cancer with courage and clarity
• Mindset strategies for facing medical uncertainty
• Affirmations for difficult treatment and testing days
• Leadership lessons for surviving life's hardest moments
• A path toward gratitude, alignment, and abundance-even in adversity
This book is for anyone facing a life-altering diagnosis, for the families standing beside them, and for anyone seeking hope when the future looks nothing like they imagined.
Because survival is not just about making it through. It is about choosing to rise-again and again. Strength is not the absence of struggle. It is the decision to keep moving forward.
