Tears are powerful. They can provide a physical release of emotions and can asses your risk level for breast cancer. Auria has developed an at-home breast health test using your tears.

Ally Doyle, NP, FNP-C, MSN, BSN, helped develop Auria, the first at-home biological breast cancer screening test powered by tears and is now a Breast Health Specialist for the company. The infamous mammogram is not very accurate and can be damaging to your breasts. Please learn more here. This is why I’m thrilled to invite you to learn more about Auria, a safe, painless, convenient, and noninvasive way to learn about your breasts.

As I always say, “YOU have OPTIONS!” You can design a healing plan that is perfectly tailored to your needs and desires. Please tune in to learn more about Auria, the information it can provide, and the importance of learning more about advocating for your health.

Elizabeth Boham, MD, IFMCP, MS, RD is a breast cancer survivor (or, as I like to say, thriver!), a functional medicine physician, and a nutritionist who teaches women how to prevent cancer. She’s one brilliant woman, so of course, we had to chat on my podcast!

At the young age of 30 and during her residency, Dr. Boham received a shocking breast cancer diagnosis. She was well-educated in health and doing “all the right things.”

It changed everything for her. She started focusing on true preventative medicine that provides balance and focuses on creating body terrain that doesn’t give cancer (or other health issues such as dementia or infertility) a chance.

Make sure to bring your notepad to this listening session because it is packed with wisdom and hope. Also, for a deeper dive into Dr. Boham’s healing philosophies and insights, please download her free book: Breast Wellness—Tools to Prevent and Heal from Breast Cancer.

Your body doesn’t make mistakes—rather, it responds to its environment—something you (for the most part) have control over. It's not about the tumor, it is about the terrain. This is the terrain-centric approach (compared to tumor-centric) that of Nicole Saleske, NP. I’m delighted to have her on the podcast because she has seen remarkable success amongst her patients since focusing on the terrain awakens your innate ability to heal.

According to Nicole, you are not cancer. You are a person who is having a "cancer-ing" experience, but it is not WHO you are—because it is not yours to keep!

Tune in to learn how your body's terrain can create an environment that is hospitable to cancer. However, since I am a woman of solutions, Nicole and I also discuss specific things you can do to prevent cancer from rooting down into your body's soil—now and forever.
