The appointment you’ve been putting off matters. So do you.
 
This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Susie Finley, Founder and President of Ascent Living Communities, shares her story. Diagnosed at 41 after her doctor found breast cancer during an annual appointment, Susie reflects on the uncertainty and the care that helped her through.
 
Thank you, Susie, for sharing your experience so openly. Your story may help someone feel less alone or find the encouragement to make that appointment.
 
Make time for your health. Talk with your doctor about breast cancer screenings and any changes or concerns. You deserve the same care and attention you give to the people you love.
 
To everyone living with breast cancer, navigating life after treatment, or missing someone they love, we’re thinking of you. This month means something different to each of you, and every one of those experiences matters.

When we asked our team why they walk, we wanted to give the people behind Ascent a moment to share what brought them here.

Working in senior living means building relationships with residents and families who become part of our lives. The impact of Alzheimer’s is personal, and those connections stay with us long after the workday ends.

At the Walk to End Alzheimer’s, we carry those people with us. We walk with love, with hope, and with a shared wish that someday, families won’t have to face this disease.

These are our voices. These are our reasons.

For our team, the Walk to End Alzheimer’s is personal. It’s about the residents we’ve come to know and love, the families we’ve built relationships with, and our own loved ones whose experiences bring us to this cause.

On Saturday, we traded our work shoes for walking shoes and showed up together with those people in mind. Working in senior living means sharing in the good days, offering support through the difficult ones, and getting to know the person beyond their diagnosis. Those connections stay with us long after the workday ends.

To our team who spent part of their weekend walking, thank you for bringing your heart to this cause. And to our residents and families: you’re a big part of why we walk, why we care, and why we keep working toward a future without Alzheimer’s.

Behind every welcoming community, meaningful moment and resident smile are people who genuinely care about the work they do.

This Labor Day, we’re celebrating our incredible team members across Ascent Living Communities. Thank you for the heart, time and dedication you bring to our residents, families and one another each day.

The Colorado Peaches is recognized as the oldest women’s softball team in the country, with members from their 60s to their 90s. This socialized exercise is crucial to maintaining their brain health.

Thank you to The Denver Gazette for featuring the Colorado Peaches and highlighting Ascent Living Communities’ proud partnership with this incredible team. We’re grateful for the opportunity to support the Peaches and help share their message that age should never limit what’s possible! 🍑🥎

Players for the Colorado Peaches, the country’s oldest softball team, are sweet, tart and still swinging — at a ripe old age. The group of 60 seniors aged 60 to 92 celebrated the team’s 35th anniversary with a doubleheader Tuesday at the Addenbrooke Park Ballfield in Lakewood, going head-to-he...

Showing up for the Colorado Peaches means showing up with our entire community. 🍑🥎

As a proud sponsor, Ascent Living Communities was honored to celebrate the team’s 35th anniversary at the 5th Annual Gail Klock Memorial Peach Bowl. Our team members and residents came together to cater the event, cheer from the sidelines and recognize the incredible women who continue to challenge assumptions about what aging looks like.

The Peaches remind us that growing older doesn’t mean slowing down. It can mean finding new ways to stay active, build friendships and keep doing what you love.

We’re grateful to be part of the Colorado Peaches community and proud to bring our own communities along for the celebration. Congratulations on 35 years!
