45. Women Supporting Women Through Fitness & Philanthropy

What happens when you stop asking “Why me?” and start asking “Why not?”

In this inspiring episode of Game Over: c*ncer, hosts Val Solomon and Dana Nichols sit down with Hannah Hunt, founder of Socks N' Such, preschool teacher, mom of two, and now a passionate pediatric cancer advocate.

What started as a simple Disney Marathon Weekend bib turned into something much bigger.

Hannah shares how fundraising for Cannonball Kids’ cancer Foundation (CKc) helped her:

• Launch her small business
• Surpass her fundraising goal
• Step into advocacy
• Bring her family and community together
• Discover her purpose in giving back

From the Maitland Farmers Market to Walt Disney World® Marathon Weekend to speaking up about pediatric cancer research funding, Hannah’s story proves you don’t need deep pockets or a huge platform to make a real impact.

You just need to jump in.

This episode is about resilience, community, advocacy, small business growth, women supporting women, and how ordinary people can help transform pediatric cancer research.

If you’ve ever wondered how to get involved, how to fundraise without “asking for money,” or how to turn passion into purpose, this one is for you.
