In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we sit down with Abbie Paklos to hear her powerful and eye-opening story. Diagnosed with stage four metastatic breast cancer at just 33, Abbie shares her journey from discovering a lump to navigating a complex diagnosis.
She opens up about how her concerns were initially dismissed because of her age—a reality too many young women face—and why advocating for yourself and trusting your gut can be life-saving. Abbie turned her diagnosis into a mission, creating Blood, Sweat & Boobs, a movement that connects, empowers, and educates others about breast cancer awareness and self-advocacy.
Abbie also discusses her approach to treatment, wellness, maintaining a positive mindset, and balancing life, love, and running a business while facing uncertainty. Her story is a powerful reminder to speak up, listen to your body, and never underestimate the strength of community and positivity.
