Katie talks with her best friend and celebrity fashion stylist, Gretta Monahan, who shares her story of battling breast cancer and now cancer free for 5 years. She describes the moment of diagnosis as, “suddenly life was different right at that moment.”
Gretta discusses her work with Find The Cause, a breast cancer research group that is dedicated to finding the cause of cancer. She reveals the shocking fact that there are 80,000 chemicals that we may be exposed to on a daily basis, many that are banned in other countries, that could be contributing to our rising cancer rates. She gives tips on how to avoid exposure in your life.
Gretta informs us that monthly self-breast exams are something we all should be scheduling in our calendars, as more than 30% of breast cancers are detected this way. She also explains that family history is not the main indicator of being at risk for the disease, as 8 out of 10 women who are currently diagnosed do not have family history.
Gretta is a true inspiration and such a positive spirit, listen in for an episode that will bring you tears, smiles, and an education on such an important topic.
