Ever wondered how sheer grit & humor can help one navigate the stormy seas of cancer diagnosis and treatment? Join us as we welcome Jen Tober, a tenacious breast cancer survivor & a dedicated “empty nesting” mom of 3 from Washington DC. I met Jen through our friend Amy Banocy, breast cancer survivor and author of  Baring it All My Breast Cancer Fuckery  Jen's story is a compelling testament to resilience, as she recounts her journey through breast cancer amidst the chaos of a global pandemic. From her pre-diagnosis life as a recovering imperfect perfectionist to the unexpected discovery of cancer during a routine medical health check, Jen shares how her personality traits and unwavering support from the breast cancer community helped her face the challenges head on.

Through personal anecdotes filled with both heart & humor, Jen opens up about her experiences w/ bilateral mastectomy & the surprising role of a life-size Lenny Kravitz cutout in her recovery process. The importance of support networks shared experiences, & the power of laughter become evident as she navigates the emotional and physical hurdles of treatment. We also delve into the transformative experience of 3D nipple & areola tattoos, exploring both the emotional impact & the legal intricacies of insurance coverage for these restorative procedures. Innovative solutions like decorative tattoos & Pink Perfect nipple prosthetics are discussed, providing listeners with a variety of options for post-surgery aesthetics.
