Show Notes

Host Suzie Lawry-Hall discusses breast cancer — the most common cancer in women in the United States, excluding skin cancer — with breast cancer survivor Auburn Menefee. The business owner shares how she found her rare cancer at the age of 28 and what her cancer journey was like. Nicole Whitlatch, M.D., a Hematologist/Oncologist at Enloe Comprehensive Breast Care, joins them to discuss what breast cancer is, exactly, who’s at risk, prevention and more. Listen and prepare to be inspired as we celebrate Breast Cancer Awareness Month. And remember, routine self-inspection is one of the best courses for identification of anomalies or changes in tissue.  "Feel it on the first" sets that routine the first day of each month and is a recommended habit to get into for a regular self-examination at the same time each month.
