Breast Cancer.

Two words merged together simply in a sentence, that uproot friends and family so easily. So many of us in the community have witnessed, been diagnosed with, heard a story about: breast cancer. For the month of October, we wanted to use our platforms, to amplify those stories yes, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗼 𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻 𝗿𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸𝘀, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿.

While the phrase #FeelUpYaBubbies may rub some people the wrong way, I believe it jolts action into women to remember how important it is to check yourself.
