📣 MEN HAVE BREASTS TOO. So why is everything still PINK? 💗💙

This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, let’s normalize talking about MALE breast cancer—and add some BLUE to those all-pink offices!

From the names on breast imaging centers to the faces on their walls, men deserve to feel welcome, included, and supported.

Thank you, Bret & Peggy Miller, for sending love all the way from Kansas to New Jersey—and for your dedication to making sure men never face breast cancer alone. 📦💙

SHARE this PSA. The men in your life need to hear it, too!

With Breast Cancer Awareness Month approaching on October 1st, this episode reminds us that a clear mammogram in the past doesn’t guarantee the same results each year. 🩷🎀

Monique Bass, breast cancer survivor and founder of What’s Behind The Bra?, sits down with fellow survivor Monique “Neek Neek” Williams for a heartfelt conversation about the moment her life changed. Monique NeekNeek Williams

She had been through a biopsy before—but this time, the call was different. On April 7, 2025, she heard the word “carcinoma.” 💔 Behind every diagnosis is a person whose life changes with those words.

Let this be your reminder to schedule your annual mammogram when you’re due and stay consistent with your recommended screenings. Don’t keep putting yourself last. Early detection saves lives. 🙏🏽

Thank you, Neek Neek, for opening your heart on What’s Behind The Bra? Healing Stories. Your story reminds someone listening that they are not alone.

Watch the full conversation on our What’s Behind The Bra ? YouTube channel, and share this with someone who needs the reminder. 🩷
