Think pink & think about your health.

October 14, 2019 By hautegreyfox

When you feel great, you look great. If you really believe this rule, I have a personal challenge for you: Schedule a doctor’s appointment — whether it’s time to get one on the calendar this week or plan ahead for next year’s annual checkup.

Now, if you’re already thinking twice about this challenge, I have a more important question: What’s holding you back?

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and 1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer in her lifetime. This is according to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Here’s another fact: “When breast cancer is detected early, and is in the localized stage, the 5-year relative survival rate is 100%.”

This means that it’s time to stop for a moment, ladies. This means that it’s time for a checkup. Here are a few ways to journey through this important decision:

Squad support

“Girl, you need to go to the doctor.”

You’re loved. You’re valued. You’re supported. When your friends encourage you to go to the doctor, listen. Friends often notice things that we may miss through our busyness or fear of accepting that something may not be right. Friends can hold each other accountable by checking in or even tagging along for a doctor’s visit. Be grateful for your squad and how they want to walk with you through so many parts of your life.

Family ties

“Your grandmother is a breast cancer survivor.”

Do you have any family members who were diagnosed with breast cancer? Respectfully ask questions and listen. Take notes on if they saw any signs, when they were diagnosed, and how they responded to the news. Don’t let this information scare you about your future. Instead, be empowered to advocate for your health.

Say something

“No one knows your body better than you.”

Listen to your body, pay attention to new changes, and don’t dismiss your concerns. Since beginning menopause, I’ve learned to be much more upfront about my feelings and symptoms during a doctor’s appointment. A doctor’s appointment is not the time to put feelings aside and hope you’ll feel better next week. This is your time to be open and honest about questions or concerns. Trust your gut and remember that early detection is key.

I’ve already scheduled my appointment. Have you made room on your calendar?

What does New Year’s Day mean to me? No resolu What does New Year’s Day mean to me?
 
No resolutions.
 
I’ve been on that rollercoaster before, and it never left me feeling my best. Instead, I dream big — and I take it one day at a time. I create a vision board with affirmations, motivational reminders, and more. 
 
I don’t have to accomplish every goal in 2023. I just have to believe my goals are never too big to achieve. 
 
How do you approach the new year?

Wednesday Words of Wisdom - FIND YOUR FIRE #Find Wednesday Words of Wisdom - FIND YOUR FIRE

#Find your fire and do whatever it is that wakes you up, whatever it is that makes you feel alive.  Do what inspires you, what moves you, what makes your heart race. Do the things that ignite passion into your bones.  Chase your dreams, follow your heart, capture the moments that take your breath away.  Do not settle for mediocrity, you have a fire in your soul and a burning in your heart.  Do not let fear, convenience or comfort put out those flames.  Hold onto what lights them with your light.  You are capable and deserving of magic, of love, of the extraordinary-you just have to believe it.  Discover what sets a spark in you, follow the flames and light a fire so big that nothing can extinguish it - there is enough fire inside you to burn brighter than the sun.”
