The Friday Feature: June 5, 2026

The Friday Feature w/Sean: Maybe It’s You. Cancer Sucks. Do Something.

✅ Maybe It’s You. Cancer Sucks. Do you know someone with cancer? Have you lost a loved one because of cancer? Most of us have. Family members. Friends. Co-workers. Neighbors. Too many people. Week 324 of The Friday Feature.

The hard part is that we can’t always control what happens to us, but we can control how we respond. Maybe that’s crying. Maybe it’s kicking dirt. Maybe it’s praying. Maybe it’s simply showing up for someone who needs help.

I only play golf about once a year, and the reason is simple. I play in the Ben Kruse 18 FORE Life Foundation tournament. For 26 years, this organization has been helping families facing cancer by sending $1,000 checks directly to those who need it. No strings attached. No administrative fees. Just people helping people. https://www.18forelife.com (https://lnkd.in/gCM_RKZa) So far, they’ve given away more than $4.5 million. Think about that. Thousands of families have received help during one of the toughest chapters of their lives because someone cared enough to do something.

👉 That’s really my message today. Do something. Or keep doing what you are doing to help make other people’s lives better. Support a local organization. Volunteer. Donate. Send an encouraging text. Check on a friend. Visit someone who is hurting. If you’re able to watch or listen to this video today, you have an opportunity to make a difference in someone else’s life.

❤️ And here’s what I’ve learned: helping someone else often helps us, too. Even if you’re the one fighting cancer.

Thanks for watching and sharing Week 324 of The Friday Feature. Keep Pushing Forward and I will see you next Friday.
