You often hear people talk about being advocates. As Beautycounter consultants, we advocate for more health-protective laws, but what does advocating really mean? What does it look like and how does one do it?

In this episode, I'm joined by Tami Hackbarth. Though she's now a self-care coach, twenty years ago, Tami worked in politics and advocated for women's health issues. Drawing from her past professional experience, Tami breaks this down. She explains:

• The legislative process
• What she worked on daily as a congressional staffer
• How our voices, letters, text messages, phone calls, and votes DO in fact make a difference
• How everyday people like you and I can take action TODAY and be advocates too

Back with us for her third and final episode this month is Katie Leadbetter of Clean Eating with Katie. In Part 3 of this four-part series, Katie speaks to those who are fighting cancer on how to bridge the gap between what doctors tell you, and what they don’t.

There have been too many times when I’ve found out that someone that I cared about was diagnosed with cancer and I didn’t know what to say or what to do that would be appropriate and supportive.

I didn’t want to sound trite or generic. I didn’t want to overstep my boundaries, especially if it wasn’t a close family member. And I certainly didn’t want to be intrusive. But I genuinely wanted to do something, yet there were times when I ended up doing nothing.

In this episode, Katie Leadbetter, of Clean Eating with Katie, is back for her second of three episodes this month, this time, with some words of advice for anyone who has a loved one who is fighting cancer. Katie wrote a blog post titled, “Five Things You Can Do for Someone with Cancer” and in this episode, we discuss what those five things are and more!
