From surviving to thriving – this conversation will inspire you.  This Wednesday on MomShine, I sit down with the awe-inspiring Maimah Karmo, a 20-year triple-negative breast cancer survivor and the visionary founder of the Tigerlily Foundation. Her journey from self-diagnosing her own tumor at 31 to becoming a national leader in women's health advocacy and health equity is truly remarkable.

In this candid conversation, Maimah shares her personal battle with breast cancer, the critical need for women's health empowerment, and how she's fighting to improve care for all, especially women of color who often face systemic barriers in healthcare.

We dive deep into:

• Self-Diagnosis & Resilience: Maimah's incredible story of trusting her body when doctors dismissed her concerns, and how she became her own first advocate.
• The Tigerlily Foundation's Impact: Discover how Maimah's foundation is making a difference through initiatives like the largest women's health symposium and nationwide advocacy training programs that empower women to speak up.
• Women's Health Policy & Progress: What's shifting in women's health policy under the current administration, what's still falling short, and crucial discussions around programs like 340B and their impact on patient access to care.
• Becoming an Angel Advocate: Learn how you can get involved, speak on Capitol Hill, and push for action to create real change in the healthcare system. (Yes, I'm personally looking into becoming an Angel Advocate for endometriosis!)
• Empowering the Next Generation: Practical advice for moms on how to teach our daughters to advocate for their health from a young age.

This episode is a rallying cry for every woman to own your wellness and understand that your health is your greatest asset. Maimah's story is one of immense strength, unwavering resilience, and profound purpose – a powerful reminder that we all have the power to create change in our own lives and for our communities.
