A cancer diagnosis changes your life in an instant—but it doesn't have to steal your hope.

In this deeply personal episode of Plans, Hope, and a Future, Susan Stoffel shares her breast cancer journey publicly for the very first time. Diagnosed with Stage 2 triple negative breast cancer despite living a healthy lifestyle and having no family history, Susan opens up about the fear, faith, and resilience that carried her through treatment to a diagnosis of no evidence of disease.

Together, Jen and Susan discuss the importance of early detection, why women with dense breast tissue must advocate for themselves, and the "God winks" that reminded Susan she was never walking alone. They also explore the lasting emotional impact of cancer, the healing power of community, and what it means to discover who you are after trauma.

Whether you're facing cancer yourself, supporting someone you love, or simply need a reminder that hope can be found even in life's hardest seasons, Susan's story will encourage and inspire you.

He got on a bus with nothing left—and no idea where his life was headed.

Casey Ragan’s story is one of loss, wandering, and ultimately, redemption. At just 18 years old, a diagnosis of Stargardt disease altered the course of his life, closing the door on his plans to enlist in the Marines and sending him into a season of deep struggle. In the years that followed, Casey turned to drugs and alcohol in an attempt to numb the pain, navigating a failed marriage and fighting to stay afloat.

Eventually, with little left to hold onto, Casey left everything familiar behind and boarded a bus to Cincinnati, stepping into the unknown. For three years, he lived in anonymity, far removed from the life he once knew. But his story did not end there.

In this powerful conversation, Casey shares how he was not only reunited with his parents and his child, but also restored in ways he never imagined. Now remarried and serving in ministry, his life reflects healing, purpose, and a deep, unwavering faith. Today, Casey will tell you that nothing matters more than his relationship with Jesus, and that even in the darkest seasons, hope is never out of reach.

What do you do when doctors say there’s no safe path forward—but God writes a different ending?

In this episode, Jen sits down with Matthew DeChellis to share a story of survival, healing, and faith.

At 18, Matthew experienced sudden blindness that led to the discovery of a brain aneurysm and stroke. With no safe surgical option, he was left in uncertainty—until a rupture weeks later left him in a coma and facing a long road of recovery.

But in the middle of it all, something unexpected happened.

During his healing process, Matthew encountered Jesus in a profound way—and what followed was both spiritual and physical transformation. Medical scans later showed the aneurysms had disappeared without explanation.

Matthew now shares his story to bring hope to others walking through the unknown, reminding us that even in the hardest moments, healing is still possible.

In this episode, I introduce Internal Family Systems (IFS) and share some of what I’ve discovered so far. It’s not a deep dive, just an honest reflection on how this framework has started to give language to things I’ve felt for a long time but couldn’t quite explain.

It’s helped me begin to understand the different parts of myself and why they show up the way they do.

When Jesus is invited into this process, everything changes. Instead of trying to fix ourselves, His presence meets us with compassion, truth, and peace—right in the middle of it all.

This episode is simply an invitation to explore, to grow in awareness, and to see that God is not distant from your inner world—He’s present in it.
