The JOYFIT Project
The JOYFIT Project is the ultimate survivorship wellness program enabling and encouraging women who have survived the woes of breast cancer to be the best they can be.
The JOYFIT Project offers healthy self-care choices that will educate, empower and enhance the lives of breast cancer survivors.
The JOYFIT Project believes that EVERY woman has the right to know what she can do to easily reduce her risk of breast cancer, lymphedema and cancer recurrence.
The JOYFIT Project's goal is to educate, empower and enhance the future health and well being of every breast cancer survivor long after the hubbub of treatment has ended.

"A cancer diagnosis need not be the end, but rather the beginning of a life better lived . . . a wake-up call to mindfully live a happier, healthier life." ~ Sue Ansari RN, BS
THE TEAM
Sue Ansari is grounded firmly in the belief of mind, body and spirit medicine that she has combined with traditional medical practices for years. As a certified lymphatic therapist, Laughter Yoga teacher, raw food chef and wellness/cancer coach, Sue worked for many years at Gilda’s Club in both Grand Rapids and Royal Oak MI presenting food, movement and laughter programs to breast cancer and lymphedema survivors. She has presented laughter and wellness programs from coast to coast, as well as internationally for the past 20 years.
Not only did Sue's mother suffer from lymphedema her entire life following polio, she was then lost to breast cancer at age 59 after a 17-year struggle. A 12-year breast cancer survivor herself, Sue believes EVERY woman has the right to know what she can do to reduce her risk of breast cancer, lymphedema and cancer recurrence. She is the author of the upcoming books, "Lymphatic Laughter" and "101 Ways to Beat Those Breast Cancer Blues".
