Casting for Recovery began with two retreats in Vermont and has grown into a program serving nearly 14,000 women. In this episode, Susan Gaetz shares how Casting for Recovery uses fly fishing, nature, volunteer support, and small-group retreats to help women diagnosed with breast cancer find connection and confidence.

Susan also explains how Casting for Recovery developed retreats for women with advanced breast cancer, how volunteers make the program work, and how partnerships help expand its reach. The conversation finishes with the Jane Drift Boat Project and a rapid-fire round covering fishing gear, gardening, smoothies, education, and photography.
