Episode Synopsis: We serve as a partner as they heal in mind, body, and spirit. The need for services continues as statistically 400 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in Weld and Larimer Counties each year.  According to Lydia, “We want to provide free post-diagnosis services to all women in northern Colorado. We are committed to continuing our important work with the supportive help of our professional providers, generous donors, committed board members, staff, and volunteers.” The organization started providing services in January 2002 and since then Hope Lives! has provided services and improved the lives of thousands of women. The name has changed to Hope Lives! The Lydia Dody Breast Cancer Support Center to better describe who we are now. Episode Guests: Lydia Dody, Founder & Board Member Starting a new organization was my creative vision but making it a reality took a village. While fighting an arduous battle with breast cancer in 2001, my experiences and struggles during treatment led me to reach out to many complementary care providers to ease my Chemotherapy side effects and help me endure my treatments physically, psychologically, and emotionally. These services improved my recovery and quality of life so much that it moved me to start The Lydia Dody Breast Cancer Foundation non-profit to help other women in treatment. Elise Carver, Executive Director Elise is thrilled to be a part of the staff and mission of Hope Lives! Not only does she have a passion for helping people and giving back, but unfortunately like most, she too, has had various family members and friends affected by breast cancer. Elise brings more than 20 years of managerial, training, and customer service experience in both the corporate and non-profit sectors. Most recently, she held the position of Volunteer Coordinator in Weld county for Pathways Hospice. Nikki Houser, Manager of Client Services & Communications Nikki is the newest staff member to join Hope Lives! With a career that includes event, retail, and marketing management, she brings a unique perspective to the team. Recently, she decided to try her skills as a school librarian at a K-8 Charter School. Aside from being a good fit professionally, Nikki is also a Breast Cancer Survivor! She was diagnosed in 2020 at age 44 with Stage 1C IDC, ER/PR+, Her2-, ATM+ and is currently in remission. http://www.hopelives.org https://www.facebook.com/hopelivescolorado https://www.instagram.com/hopelivesfc/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/hopelivesfc/ --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/theboobreport/support

Episode Synopsis:  This episode of The Boob Report podcast is all about Mom’s. Our guest Denise Taylor was the caregiver for her Mother during her first and second diagnosis of breast cancer. We are discussing how it can be overwhelming and rewarding all at once. She was able to step in and take over with power of attorney, keeping track of doctors’ appointments, treatments and medications. Amid all of that, she was able to take some time for her and her family by setting up outside help. She stresses how self-care can be so important to make sure you are there for your loved ones. Episode Guests: Denise Taylor My goal is to help you build a life you love without apology. A life that is successful in every way you define. With the right "Success Strategies" you can have it all and I want to help you succeed. One of the biggest challenges we face as professional women is warring against the pressure to settle or even give up. Pressure to choose or even sacrifice who we are & what we want - be it love, career, family, relationship, or lifestyle. I believe we can pursue happiness our way without compromise. We don’t have to settle.  Linktree: https://linktr.ee/denisetaylorlive Website: http://www.denisetaylor.live/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/denisevtaylor/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9lC9P-ic0Dh6XqirK5S0bQ DeniseTaylor.live FB Page: https://www.facebook.com/denisetaylorlive Denise Taylor Facebook Account: https://www.facebook.com/denise.taylor.921 DeniseTaylor.live IG: https://www.instagram.com/Denisetaylor.live/ Life, Love and the Pursuit of Happiness Podcast, hosted by Denise Taylor If you’ve secretly wanted more despite having achieved meaningful success & results, you’re going to love this podcast.

Episode Synopsis: Just a quick podcast to talk about how I have been working through my own struggles with pain, survivor’s guilt, the everyday craziness of life. I have mentioned before that I have struggled for years, even before breast cancer, with anxiety and depression and not really dealing with triggers that might set those feelings into high gear! It has also taken me some time to find things that work for me to help me calm down and work with my anxiety and depression. This does include therapy but I also have found things I can do on my own with self care. Once again, it’s not wrong to struggle with your emotions, be angry or cry! That’s all healthy and normal! I tried to find the humor in things, trust me it was hard but I kept at it. Keep moving forward, sometimes it’s all you can do!

Episode Synopsis: On this episode of The Boob Report, we are visiting with Tracey Spielman, a self-professed Type A personality who was diagnosed with breast cancer on Valentine’s Day 2020 during the pandemic. She shares with us how challenging it was to deal with not only the diagnosis but the fact that she felt she had no control over what was happening to her. Episode Guests: Tracey Spielman I grew up on a farm in South Dakota and attended South Dakota State University (go jackrabbits!) earning a degree in Engineering. I joined Air Force ROTC in college and served active duty for 9 years and 11 more years in the Air Force Reserves. I also work for an engineering consulting firm. I’m married with 3 teenagers… a now senior in high school and twin 8th-grade girls. All of these experiences made me extra strong…or so I thought. I was diagnosed with HER 2 positive (actually triple positive) Breast Cancer on Valentine’s Day in 2020, just as COVID was hitting. As I was scheduling my routine annual mammogram, I noticed something unusual.  We proceeded with the mammogram and even though my mammogram was deemed “clear” my ultrasound and subsequent biopsy confirm all 3 areas they tested  - including my lymph nodes, were positive. I was hysterical; this was not part of my plan.  I immediately started chemo in an effort to shrink the tumors, then had a double mastectomy.  I did not have a complete response, so I continued with 14 more Kadcyla infusions followed by 7 weeks of radiation, then reconstruction and fat grafting. It’s definitely a marathon vs a sprint, which is not what I wanted to hear, but having a good plan in place has really helped me navigate and stay focused and strong. And while I’m still a huge planner and worrier, this bump has taught me to focus more on today and to celebrate the small victories along the way.
