Conquering From Within
A Virtual Retreat for Mind & Heart
A Transformational Experience to Heal Emotional Wounds and Empower Your Healing Journey
You’ve done the treatments. You’ve followed the protocols. But deep down, something still feels unsettled…
Maybe it’s the Fear of Recurrence—the nagging worry it could come back or something worse.
Or maybe you feel fine physically but deep inside, you know there’s:
- Unprocessed Stress: Of carrying this burden for so long.
- Grief: For the life, body, or sense of safety you’ve lost.
- Trauma: Whether from your diagnosis or from a past that cancer brought back to the surface.
At Breast Cancer Conqueror®, we know healing isn’t just about what happens in your body—it’s about what happens in your heart, mind, and spirit.
That’s why Essential #4 of the 7 Essentials System® focuses on Healing Your Emotional Wounds.
Because True Healing can only happen when we face what’s hidden beneath the surface.
It’s not enough to know emotions affect your health. This retreat will show you how to heal them.
Why This Retreat Matters
Understand the Emotional Connection to Breast Cancer
Discover how emotions like stress, fear, and grief directly affect your body’s ability to heal. You’ll explore the mind-body connection, how negative emotions can fuel illness, and how releasing emotional wounds opens the door to real healing.
Shift Your Mindset for Healing
- Transform your relationship with cancer—from fighting to finding the gift.
- Learn how your thoughts, beliefs, and emotions shape your healing journey.
- Harness the power of the placebo effect, release the grip of nocebo thinking, and cultivate gratitude and peace.
The 7 Essentials literally saved my life.
All of them are so vital, but it was Essential #4 “Heal Your Emotional Wounds” that provided the mindset for the other essentials to work.
Once I realized that what I focused on was what I experienced, I then chose joy over fear, anxiety, and worry.
I chose to reduce stress by starting to paint and take time for the things I loved. My job became effortless, the cancer is gone, and my days are filled with an awareness that I create my peace of mind with my thoughts, which in turn created a healthy, harmonious body.

Are You Carrying Emotional Burdens That Are Holding You Back?
Even after doing everything right—changing your diet, taking supplements, completing treatments—you might still feel like something is missing.
- The fear lingers.
- The grief feels too big to process.
- The trauma stays locked away, quietly affecting your health.
These emotional burdens are not just in your mind—they weigh on your body too. This retreat will give you the proven techniques and tools to release these emotional blocks and help your body heal more fully.
I found and joined BCC coaching after traditional cancer treatment: surgery, chemo, and radiation. BCC coaching is an incredible value, regardless of whether you are actively "cancering" or, like me, actively preventing recurrence.
As I enter my 3rd year with my coach and Dr V, I have learned to be more gentle and patient with myself. My learning and health journey conquers onward.
I am very grateful for the supportive community and support that is provided in BCC and its coaching programs.
