We’re looking for stories on the following topics


Testing experiences: Tell us about your journey with breast cancer testing – from mammograms to genetic testing and beyond. We are especially interested in your experiences with ESR1 mutation testing.

Breast reconstruction: Share your experiences with breast reconstruction surgeries, decisions, and outcomes.

Time and treatment: Reflect on the time commitments involved in appointments, treatments, procedures, and the impact they've had on your life.

Why share your story?


Your story matters. By sharing your experiences, you're not only providing insight and support to others facing similar challenges but also helping to break down barriers and stigma surrounding breast cancer. Your journey can inspire hope, resilience, and community.

Thank you


Your story may be shared on our website, social media platforms, and/or newsletters. Together, let's make sure no one feels alone in their breast cancer journey.

Due to the high volume of submissions we receive, we are not able to respond to every story individually. However, we carefully review each one to select a diverse range of experiences that represent different stages, diagnoses, and the many facets of a breast cancer journey. We learn from every story we receive, and they all help us create a more supportive community.

Thank you for being a part of our community!
