For a special episode dedicated to breast cancer awareness, this week Giovanna sits down with actress and mum of two, Ali Bastian
Last year, while breastfeeding her youngest daughter, Ali began experiencing severe pain and discovered a lump in her breast. Despite her concerns, she was told it was likely a blocked duct from feeding.
Ali opens up about what followed - her breast cancer diagnosis, chemotherapy, and a mastectomy. She reflects on what it meant to really show up for herself during that time, and the love and support she found in unexpected places in what can be an incredibly lonely journey.
