Bridgett Riley - Positivity, Determination, and Overcoming Cancer

Bridgett Riley is known for her vivaciousness, dedication, and hard work in becoming a world champion in kickboxing and boxing, as well as a professional Hollywood Stuntwoman. She has performed in over 100 films and TV shows, including The Power Ranger Movies, The Island, Star Treck, Twilight, Million Dollar Baby, The Hanger, and Bad Boys for Life. However, her life took a stand still following a diagnosis of stage 3 rectal cancer in June 2019. After multiple surgeries, rounds of chemotherapy and radiation, she is now cancer free! Today, she talks about her diagnosis, recovery, and return to her active career.  Bridgett says dedication, hard work, hope, prayer, and community were fundamental in her recovery. We not only discuss her recovery, but she gives us some tidbits on how to help those we know who may be diagnosed and receiving treatment for cancer. “If I have a take away, it would be to ADD LOVE, and stay POSITIVE in thinking. Get SCREENINGS because it is ALL about being preventative when it comes to our health.” - Bridgett
