About this listen

The daily challenges and emotional toll of living with dense breast tissue and a heightened risk of breast cancer: Host Lisa Malia sat down with guest Caitlin Moyer to discuss a subject often overlooked. Through Caitlin's candid narrative, listeners gain a window into the multi-layered journey many women face—from confusing mammogram results and insurance battles to the importance of building networks of support and advocating for oneself in a complicated medical system. Stories like Caitlin’s aren’t just personal; they’re powerful tools for education and community. A significant turning point in Caitlin’s journey was realizing the crucial role of self-advocacy—especially when faced with conflicting or careless advice. She trusted her instincts, questioned the guidance, and ultimately chose to find a new gynecologist who aligned better with her needs.
