"Thoughts, suggestions & comments text me here"

My guest was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2012, IDC, stage 2B, HER2+Jan became an “accidental” breast cancer advocate. She had ten girlfriends who had breast cancer before her, and she created a secret Facebook group where she could get her questions answered by them. But those girlfriends ended up inviting newly diagnosed girls to the group, and the rest is history! The Booby Buddies has served more than 2,000 women with breast cancer over the years. And that was just the beginning. Jan also created two other private Facebook groups: The Living Room which is a safe place for stage 4 women to share and get encouragement, and Sex After Breast Cancer where women can safely discuss and find answers about the issues that affect their intimate lives after breast cancer. Jan also founded Provision Project, a non-profit that provides financial relief to women in active treatment for breast cancer in 2015. And this year, Jan has launched her newest project, Hope After Breast Cancer, a place where women who have experienced breast cancer can be encouraged and empowered to reclaim their lives and THRIVE!
