My Daughter and Mom Died of Cancer | Jessica Basham | 95

J.D.

What an emotional interview this was, and I’m so appreciative of Jessica Basham for sharing her story involving cancer and the devastating ways it’s affected her life.

Though Jessica hasn’t personally battled cancer, it has changed her world forever. In this heartfelt conversation, she opens up about losing her daughter Schuylar to cancer—and how she continues to keep her memory alive through testimony and action. Jessica founded a Mom’s retreat "Broken to Beautiful" to support other women who have lost a child, and through that mission, she’s turning pain into purpose.

She also shares about the loss of her biological mother to cancer. But make no mistake—Jessica isn’t letting cancer take her spirit. Her strength and vulnerability in this conversation are powerful reminders of resilience, love, and remembrance.

🎙️ Watch the full episode to hear a mother’s strength, a daughter’s legacy, and how healing can be found in honoring those we’ve lost.
