After her cancer diagnosis, anger was one of the first emotions she felt. But a powerful conversation with her therapist changed her perspective: “You can choose how you experience cancer.” We can't always choose the battles we face, but we can choose how we walk through them.

What if you could choose how to experience one of the hardest seasons of your life? When nationally recognized real estate entrepreneur Courtney Benson was diagnosed with breast cancer, she had finally reached a place where she felt genuinely happy. After years of chasing success, overcoming financial hardship, and working to change her mindset, life was finally falling into place. Then everything changed. Her chemotherapy wasn't working as expected. Her cancer continued growing. And at one point, Courtney began thinking about recording videos for her children because she feared she might not be there for their future milestones. But one unexpected question challenged the way she viewed everything: "How do you want to experience cancer?" In this episode of Dallas the Podcast, host Dallas sits down with Courtney Benson, an entrepreneur, speaker, and breast cancer overcomer, for an honest conversation about fear, resilience, happiness, and the power of choosing how we respond when…

Sometimes God calls us into something we never would have chosen for ourselves. When Krissy White was asked to become President of the Tuman Breast Cancer Foundation, her first response wasn't an immediate yes. She was hesitant. But she couldn't ignore the feeling that God was pushing her toward something bigger than herself. What began as her own battle with breast cancer became an opportunity to walk alongside other women facing theirs. Sometimes our greatest purpose is found in the very places we never wanted to go. 🎙️ Hear Krissy's story on Dallas The Podcast, link in Bio.

Some stories are too powerful to keep to yourself. Breast cancer overcomer and author Krissy White didn’t write *My Pink Truth* just to tell her story. She wrote it because the hard, messy, and painful parts of life deserve to be talked about, too. There is power in telling the truth about what you’ve walked through. And sometimes, your story becomes the very thing that gives someone else the courage to keep going. 🎙️ In this episode of *Dallas The Podcast*, Krissy shares the heart behind her book and why she chose to put her journey into words.

Krissy White says she has “cheated death twice.” The first time came during a life-threatening pregnancy that left both Krissy and her daughter fighting for their lives. Years later, she heard the words no one expects to hear: You have cancer. Krissy’s breast cancer journey included chemotherapy, surgery, radiation, hair loss, isolation during COVID, and moments where she had to surrender the future she thought she could control. But this conversation is about much more than cancer. It is about what happened next. Krissy began asking why she was still here. Over time, that question became purpose. Today, she is the author of My Pink Truth and president of the Tuman Breast Cancer Foundation, where she now helps other women and families navigate many of the same realities she once faced herself. In this episode, Krissy shares: The phone call that changed her life Her stage three breast cancer journey Nearly losing her life during childbirth Walking through treatment during COVID Losing …

A parent has never met her. Their child is critically ill. And Tracey Cunningham may have only 30 seconds to earn their trust. As a neonatal and pediatric flight nurse, Tracey enters families' lives during some of their most frightening moments. She may have only minutes before taking a critically ill baby or child away from their parents and transporting them to the specialized care they need. Her responsibility is enormous. But Tracey's connection to these families started long before she ever stepped aboard a medical helicopter. Her first son spent time in the NICU, and the nurses who cared for him helped inspire Tracey to pursue nursing herself.

Tracey Final Transcript In this episode of Dallas the Podcast, Tracey shares the unforgettable story of Daniel, a baby born with a congenital heart defect who desperately needed su…

What can firefighters teach the rest of us about leadership? A lot more than you might think. In this episode of Dallas the Podcast, Dallas sits down with firefighter, paramedic, fire captain, and author Mark Andrew, whose book Leading Through the Heat grew out of years of leading people in an environment where trust, preparation, teamwork, and accountability are not optional. One of the biggest ideas in this conversation is simple: Great leaders do not need to control everything. Mark and Dallas talk about the importance of teaching people, giving them opportunities to grow, understanding their strengths and weaknesses, and trusting them enough to step into their role. Because when leaders empower the people around them, the entire team becomes stronger. They also explore the real-world side of firefighting and emergency response—from Mark's early days in the fire service to memorable calls, dangerous situations, life inside the firehouse, and the experiences that ultimately sh…

What if the delay is actually part of the preparation? In this episode of Dallas the Podcast, Dallas Fears sits down with Abbie Wallace for an honest conversation about faith, marriage, motherhood, nursing, entrepreneurship, and learning to trust God’s timing. Abbie grew up in a small Iowa town where community and relationships shaped the way she viewed life. She went on to become a nurse, built a life alongside her husband, former NFL quarterback Seneca Wallace, and eventually found herself returning to an interest that had been there for years: helping people pursue better health and wellness. That journey eventually led to The Drip Mobile IV. What started as an idea became a concierge wellness business, with Abbie personally traveling across Dallas to care for clients in the early days. Today, The Drip has grown into a team of nurses providing mobile IV services while also expanding into wellness and aesthetics from its Prosper location. But Abbie’s story is not really about o…

Today’s episode looks a little different. Dallas is coming to you from Durham, North Carolina, after 14 days away from home and following Finley’s 29th surgery. And today, there is so much to be grateful for. After weeks of pain, uncertainty, hospital stays, and prayer, Finley’s doctors believe they found the area that had been causing much of her discomfort. During surgery, they were able to remove the plate, deliver antibiotics directly to that area, and examine the rest of her eye. Everything else looked great. There was another answer to prayer that meant more than most people could know. After going under anesthesia 29 times, Finley came out of anesthesia better than Dallas has ever seen her come out of it. After everything Finley has endured—and the anxiety that comes with another surgery—that moment was a tremendous answer to prayer. The Fears family knows they are not out of the woods yet. There is still healing ahead and more they are waiting to see. But today, they a…

Some moments in life are difficult to explain. A terrifying moment on a mountain that should have ended differently. A spontaneous journey across the country that eventually led to a man with “Lost Hope” tattooed across his fingers. A dream involving three numbers—555—that would eventually lead to a highway, a town called Jericho, and a much deeper lesson about the grace of God. In this episode of Dallas the Podcast, Dallas Fears sits down with Max Bloeser—a husband, father, dentist, adventurer, and man who has spent more than 30 years intentionally pursuing a deeper relationship with God. But Max’s story isn’t really about miracles. It’s about what happened when he realized there was a difference between knowing about God and actually knowing Him. That realization changed the way Max approached his faith. He began asking questions. Making room to listen. Stepping outside his comfort zone. And sometimes following where he believed God was leading—even when he couldn’t understan…

Today is Finley's second surgery on her only eye this week. In this clip, she shares something that has anchored her through every challenge: Who the Author of her story is.🤍 No matter what today holds, we know God is already there. He is writing a story that we cannot fully see yet, but we trust the One who holds the pen. As you watch, would you please stop and say a prayer for Finley? Pray for wisdom for every doctor and nurse, for steady hands during surgery, for complete healing from this infection, for a successful retinal repair, and for God's peace to surround our family. Thank you for standing with us, believing with us, and praying with us. We are so grateful for every one of you.

The last 72 hours have changed everything for our family. After waking up Sunday in excruciating eye pain, Finley was seen by her retina and cornea specialists. What they discovered led to emergency eye surgery Monday—another surgery in a journey that has already included more than 25 procedures. Doctors found an infection inside Finley’s eye, but one of the biggest questions remains unanswered: How did it get there? During emergency surgery, antibiotics were injected directly into her eye and fluid was taken for cultures. Now, we wait. We wait to see what the cultures reveal. We wait to see if the antibiotics work. And we wait to learn what comes next. In this episode, I sit down with Finley while we are still very much in the middle of the story. She shares what the last few days have been like, the frightening experience she had coming out of anesthesia, what she’s feeling now, and what it’s like to face another unknown after everything she has already endured. We don't have …

Why does someone stay in a relationship they know is hurting them? In this deeply personal episode of Dallas the Podcast, Dallas Fears sits down with her childhood friend Christy Martin to uncover a story Dallas never knew was unfolding behind the scenes. Christy shares her journey through addiction, multiple DUIs, prison, abusive relationships, and eventually reaching a point where she knew that if she went back, she might not survive. But one of the most powerful parts of Christy's story is understanding why she stayed. Growing up with divorced parents, Christy became determined to give her own daughters something different. She believed keeping her family together meant she hadn't failed—even as the relationship she was fighting to preserve became increasingly dangerous. This conversation goes beyond addiction and domestic abuse. It's about the complicated reasons people hold on, recognizing the early signs of an abusive relationship, the difference between giving up and surr…
