I am so excited to introduce you to my cancer besties, Missi and Alice, who turned their breast cancer journeys into purpose!

Cancer Besties is an incredible online toolbox that translates your imaging & lab reports into plain English, & also provides a list of follow-up questions to ask your provider. 🤯 (When I posted about it on @theboobiedocs, you all went crazy with good reason!)

We talk about each of their breast cancer journeys & how this inspired them to create Cancer Besties. Missi was found to carry a BRCA 1 mutation and underwent a prophylactic bilateral mastectomy. She then helped her friend Alice, who was diagnosed with breast cancer after her first mammogram.

We cover a lot in this important conversation, including:

•What to expect for your mammogram & biopsy

•Understanding your imaging & biopsy results

•How to calculate your own breast cancer risk score using the Tyrer-Cuzick calculator

•The real reason you can’t wear deodorant during a mammogram…

And so much more!

I hope you love this conversation as much as we do.

It is my incredible honor to introduce you to my friends at the Pink Eraser Project, a newly launched nonprofit to help accelerate the development of the breast cancer vaccine, which thanks to their support & top cancer researchers around the country, could be a reality in the next 5 to 10 years. (Yes you read that right!!) 🤯

I joined by cofounder, Kristen Dahlgren, an Emmy nominated NBC reporter & medical correspondent for nearly 3 decades, who recently stepped down from her role to launch the Pink Eraser project, which as a breast cancer thriver, is a project so dear to heart.🎀

Kristen joins me with her cofounder & friend, Michele Young, who also happens to be a badass lawyer, stage 4 breast cancer thriver & advocate. Their mission, to support the ongoing clinical trials & cancer vaccine researchers including Kiran Dillon, PhD, Executive Director of the University of Washington Cancer vaccine Institute, who joins me on the podcast as well.

I promise this podcast episode will leave feeling hopeful, inspired, & wanting to support their mission of erasing breast cancer.

Sending you love. Thank you for listening. 💕

follow me @theboobiedocs & @ggtobc for more of the BREAST info!

I am joined by my longtime friend Dr. Heidi Hutman, who also happens to be a Clinical Psychologist & Associate Professor of Psychology at a University in Philadelphia.

Not gonna lie, this conversation gets a little emo. 🖤

We reflect on 2023 & manifest for 2024, while discussing the hedonic treadmill of success & the struggles of balancing work, life, & social media.

I also open up about my diagnosis of ADHD, why she didn’t tell me, common symptoms, & tips/ treatment for ADHD.

This is a real and raw conversation that we hope you get something out of, & a reminder that it’s ok not to be ok. 🫶

We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we do.

Prepare to have your mind blown with this @ggtobc episode featuring my new friend & mentor, Dr. Beth Dupree. 🤯 A Breast Surgical Oncologist by training, a series of impactful life events & a spiritual awakening fueled her desire to heal the whole patient. She transformed her clinical practice towards Integrative Medicine which led her to her latest clinical interest, Psychedelics in cancer care.

@drbethdupree & I bond over our shared love of “Many Lives, Many Masters” & delve into the role of Psychedelics & Spirituality in cancer care, chronic illness, & survivorship. We also discuss the issues with Western medicine, physician burnout, & how she handles the haters & naysayers.

It is truly the Universe that led me to Dr. Dupree, & this conversation is the beginning of our beautiful bond.

It left me wanting more, & I am now halfway through her first book, “The Healing Consciousness: A Doctor’s Journey to Healing,” which I highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I hope you love this eye-opening conversation as much as I do! (& if you do, please leave me a review! 🫶)

Now is the right time to share this important conversation that I recorded back in May, 2023 with Lizzy Savetsky & Dr. Ira Savetsky.

@drirasavetsky is a Manhattan based plastic surgeon. @lizzysavetsky is a digital fashion influencer, matchmaker, mother if 3 & one of the most outspoken advocates for Israel. 🇮🇱

We discuss the antisemitism that their family has been subjected their family to, particularly during their premature departure from the most recent reboot of the Real Housewives of New York & over prior conflicts in the Middle East.

This conversation is even important now given recent world events & the rise in antisemitism. ✡️

But this is mainly an open conversation about breast health. We talk all about breast implants (spoiler alert, Dr. Savetsky did Lizzie’s breasts himself!), the rise in young breast cancer, & the increased risk of BRCA mutations in the Ashkenazi Jewish population. We also talk about finding balance in social media & Lizzy’s sobriety journey.

I also offer my best breast cancer screening advice for those at higher-than-average risk for breast cancer.

I am thrilled to be offering free genetic screening for the first 25 listeners thanks to @getjscreened & @kickbrca! 🙌

I hope you learn something from this conversation. I wish you peace & safety wherever you are. 💕

IT’S OUR 2️⃣ YEAR PODCAST ANNIVERSARY!!🥳 & we’re celebrating by having our first repeat guest, Dr. Elyce Cardonick from @cancerandpregnancy. But this time, she’s sharing about her own diagnosis of rectal cancer & what it’s been like to go from doctor to patient.

We talk about the rise in cancer in young people, the unforeseen side effects of chemotherapy, scanxiety, & she offers her best advice for those going through chemotherapy or supporting someone who is. And, of course, we dedicate the last part of the episode to her area of expertise, cancer during pregnancy.

Dr. Cardonick offers so much wisdom & insight, & we are so grateful to have her share her story with us.

I hope you love this podcast episode as much as I do! (if you do, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts! 🍏🍎)

We also discuss how she went from Neggy Meggy to the Queen of Yay through small changes that lead to big changes (she credits “Atomic Habits” by James Clear which is my newest obsession & first ever book-club rec…stay tuned! 😍)
