Today our host April Stearns gives us some reflections and food for thought from the young breast cancer landscape.  In this mini yet dense episode, April honors the memory of metastatic breast cancer (MBC) influencer & advocate Nalie Agustin, ponders what it means to be a “cancer famous” social media influencer, and how our words live on after we are gone. She’ll talk about the empowerment and inspiration that emerges when being vulnerable with your authentic voice, finding meaning in what you are experiencing, and share a story about a quote from Brene Brown that captivated her. 

In memoriam: Natalie “Nalie”  Agustin, November 1988 - March 2022.
