We prepare for birthdays, vacations, and retirement… but what about life’s unexpected turns? 💗

In this conversation, breast cancer survivor and financial educator Miranda “Randi” Basden shares her experience securing additional life insurance before her diagnosis—and the challenges she faced trying to increase coverage afterward.

I’m Monique J. Bass, breast cancer survivor and founder of What’s Behind The Bra? These conversations matter because cancer touches more than our bodies—it touches our families, our finances, and our future.

Survivorship

A second opinion isn’t disrespect. It’s advocating for yourself. 💗

Monique Bass, founder of What’s Behind The Bra? and breast cancer survivor, sits down with Kia Harris-Carr, breast and ovarian cancer survivor and founder of Beautiful Faces Foundation, for a conversation about speaking up and seeking answers. Kia Monique J. Bass

Ask questions. Seek clarity. Get a second opinion—and a third if you still need answers. You deserve to feel heard and understand your care.

Imagine being told you have Stage 4 terminal cancer—and still being here 27 years later. 🙌🏾💗

Terlisa Sheppard’s journey is a powerful reminder that a diagnosis is not an expiration date. After initially being given the wrong medical information, she trusted her instincts, contacted her oncologist, and continued fighting for answers.

Twenty-seven years later, she is still here—thriving, inspiring and proving that hope is stronger than fear. 💪🏾
