Ginger Johnson shares how hope can work miracles in your life. Ginger Johnson is an international speaker, author, mentor and 2x stage 4 metastatic breast cancer survivor. For over 11 years, she has been an active advocate promoting greater hope, health and happiness in the cancer community and world abroad. Originally diagnosed with breast cancer in 2006, when 31 years old and 5 months pregnant, then re-diagnosed in 2015 with stage 4 metastatic disease, Ginger is no stranger to adversity. Through her optimism, enthusiasm, faith, resiliency, solution mindset and make-it-happen determination, Ginger has been called the 'quintessential connector', 'a hope giver', and 'a force of nature'. In 2017, she received news that the stage 4 cancer, which had previously been in her lung, spine, skull, bone and lymphnodes had all been ‘resolved’.Ginger has been featured on a variety of media outlets including NBCNews.com, USAToday, StandUp2Cancer, iHeart Media, Everyday Health and in magazines such as Real Simple, Breast Cancer Wellness, Coping with Cancer, Wildfire and many more. Her image and story circled the globe in 2010 as she was featured with fellow survivors on the back of the Cheerios box as part of a General Mills and Susan G. Komen initiative. Ginger is now on a mission to share what she has learned to help others discover greater meaning, purpose and direction in life. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
