About Research For Rachel

Rachel's Story

Rachel is a wife, sister and mother of three. Endlessly dedicated to her family, Rachel spreads the word and way of love everywhere she goes. On September 9th, 2021; our lives changed. The diagnosis of stage 2, grade 3 Breast Cancer brought us all to our knees. Enduring radiation, chemotherapy and 3 lumpectomy's; Rachel is now on her path to remission.

Catherine's Story

Catherine is Rachels youngest, standing 5'9" and full of fire. At age 6, she finally got her wish of riding lessons, she blossomed from there. Catherine is now an avid & accomplished horsemen at 27 years young. Throughout the heart break of radiation, chemotherapy and shaving her mothers head; Catherine continued to make fire and refuse darkness.

catherines testimony:

"I've always been a big dreamer. From constantly raising the bar in my horsemanship, to figuring out how to fight cancer MY way. I work 55 hour weeks, I have 4 horses and 1 dog. I have a love for painting, singing and dancing. I am simply a girl in her 20's figuring out life and how to go through it. Understanding pressure is a privilege; I welcome any challenge with a smile. Thank you for choosing to join me and my biggest adventure yet."
