Breaking the Silence

Let's Talk Boobies: Breaking the Silence on Breast Cancer & Black Women

Black women face higher mortality rates and more aggressive breast cancer subtypes compared to their White counterparts—but together, we can change that. In this episode of Let’s Talk Boobies, three Black women—a physician assistant student, a nurse practitioner, and a non-medical guest—come together for an honest, empowering conversation about breast cancer risks, early detection, and navigating the healthcare system. We break down common myths, share personal experiences, and give you practical tools to advocate for your health and the health of those you love. Whether you’re here to learn, to share, or to start the conversation in your own circles, this episode is for you.
