"How a Routine Checkup and Self-Advocacy Revealed a Breast Cancer Diagnosis," with Triple Negative Breast Cancer Advocate Lorelei Colbert
Listen now
Description
Introducing my dear friend and TNBC sister, Lorelei Colbert. We met through our advocacy work with the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation and her beautiful glow and energy are absolutely infectious!   At the young age of 28, Lorelei was diagnosed with TNBC, a direct result of going for a very routine doctor visit for a physical so she and her husband could move abroad on military orders. Her inquiry about birth control led to a breast exam that would change her entire life.   Join us as we explore Lorelei's narrative, a powerful testament to self-advocacy, overcoming a TNBC diagnosis, confronting fertility obstacles, and ultimately embracing motherhood!
