Bits and Boobs

To wrap up Season One, we’re hitting pause and having a proper look back.

In this episode, we share 25 things we learnt in 2025, the tough lessons, the small wins, the “did that really just happen?” moments, and the stuff no one tells you when life goes sideways.

We also chat about what we’re taking into 2026 - personally and professionally, what we’re leaving behind, what we’re holding onto, and what’s next for Bits & Boobs

In today’s episode, I sat down with the incredible Cass Miller, a woman whose strength hits you the second she starts speaking. Diagnosed with incurable cancer at 36 with three young kids, Cass has turned fear, uncertainty and the absolute chaos of her life into purpose, presence, and the most beautiful perspective.

This conversation feels like a warm, grounding therapy session. We talk about walking hand-in-hand with fear instead of letting it drive, choosing a better-feeling thought when everything feels heavy, and finding tiny moments of courage when your whole world is falling apart. Cass shares how she parents through this, how she stays connected to herself, and the way her spirituality and community have held her together.

We also go deep into the shift that happens when you realise no one else is coming - that you are the one who has to show up for the scan, for the treatment, and for the healing. And somehow, in that truth, there is so much power.

Cass is hope, honesty, softness and resilience all in one - I walked away from this chat in awe, and I know you will too.

You can check out Cass and the beautiful things she is doing below!

This week on Bits and Boobs, we’re doing something a little different - I finally convinced my partner, Alex to jump on the mic and share what it’s actually like being the support person through cancer, the fear, the grief, and the quiet strength that holds everything together. Whether you’re going through treatment yourself or love someone who is, this one’s for the support people who often sit in the shadows.

We also chat about the first community event, Art of Awareness - painting boobies on canvases, journaling, and raising money for So Brave. It was wholesome, emotional, and the first of many. And… a tiny bit exciting: All Friends here caps are now live. Each has a hidden stitched message for the days you need a softer start - “love lives here” in soft yellow, and “trust the slow days” in navy. The perfect gift for someone going through something heavy, or just someone you love.

This week we’re joined by Atiyya from LSKD - the Aussie activewear brand doing so much more than just making you look good 💪💗

Atiya shares how LSKD’s partnership with the National Breast Cancer Foundation has grown over the past five years, raising over $250,000 for breast cancer research and why their October collection means so much to the team personally.

We talk about how her mum’s breast cancer diagnosis changed her perspective, what “We rise by lifting others” really means inside the LSKD culture, and how a simple QR code in a bra might just save a life!

It’s community, courage, and conversation all in one episode.

At 29, Tessa’s world flipped overnight. She was planning her future - newly married, dreaming of motherhood and then… a lump. 

What followed was a whirlwind no one prepares you for: a miscarriage of two little bubs, chemo, and fear. In this episode, Tessa opens up about this year, the year that changed everything, and how she found strength, softness, and perspective in the mess, alongside her beautiful husband, Mitch. 

It’s raw. It’s real. We are so proud of Tessa, and admire her strength.

5 years ago, at just 26, Emily found a lump in the shower. What followed was a stage 3 diagnosis, months of chemo, and later, the news no one ever wants to hear, it’s back, and it’s metastatic.

In this episode, Emily shares what life really looks like beyond the whirlwind, the egg-freezing, the long hospital days, the moments when hope feels far away, and the strength it takes to keep showing up anyway.

But more than anything, she talks about how she’s found joy again, in the small things, the slow days, and the life she’s built with her husband and their beautiful dog, Ollie. A story about love, perspective, and choosing happiness in a life that looks different, but still so full.

This week, Dakota sits down solo to share the advice she wishes she could give her pre-diagnosis self.

Whether you’ve just been diagnosed, love someone who has, or simply want to understand what it really feels like, this episode offers honesty, comfort, and perspective. Because sometimes the most powerful words are the ones you wish you’d heard at the very start.

We apologise for a few glitches in this episode! Thanks for bearing with us! <3

When breast cancer left Jess Armstrong’s skin raw and reactive, she decided to flip the script. What started as a desperate hunt for products she could actually use during treatment became FUCA. A skincare made for sensitive, irritated skin. And now? It’s sitting proudly on the shelves at MECCA.

In this episode, we chat with Jess about turning pain into purpose: launching a brand while still recovering, and building something that says “you’re not forgotten” to anyone going through treatment. She shares the frustrations that lit the fire, the wins that made it worth it, and what it really takes to bring a business like FUCA to life.

This isn’t just a skincare story. It’s about resilience, defiance, and rewriting your own narrative when life tries to write it for you.

FUCA 🌸
