Teri Bode, former Cardinals Cheerleader turned second grade teacher, has overcome obstacles of cancer, and fights every day to defy the odds with positivity and living an intentional life.  She says, “Being positive completely changes the way you feel internally and the way you look outside.” 

In 2000, Teri Bode was diagnosed with breast cancer, and after surgery she was told it was all clear, but two years later it came back. She had surgery once again and started treatments.
