More Than a Gift
The Easiest Way You Can Protect a Warrior This December

Hello Hogwarts, my mom is a HERO!
Cancer is a thief. It doesn’t just take your health; it steals your time, your identity, and the moments that make motherhood beautiful.In 2024, ten days before her 27th birthday, Taya’s life was hijacked by a Stage 2A diagnosis. She was a student and a full-time worker, but suddenly, her only job was survival. She sat her five-year-old son down and told him she’d be "sick for a little bit," keeping the word cancer a secret to protect his childhood for just a little longer.

Dear awesome soul,
We won’t sugarcoat it:
In 2025, women are still misdiagnosed more often than men.
We’re underrepresented in clinical trials.
Chronic pain is dismissed. Mental health is stigmatized.
And far too many women are too busy caring for others to care for themselves.
So on the last day of National Women’s Health Week, let’s be clear about what this week should be about — and what it still needs to be.

Routine care still saves lives.
Too many cancers are still caught late. Annual checkups, pap smears, mammograms, and blood tests aren’t optional — they’re necessary.
Mental health is part of women’s health.
Burnout. Anxiety. Depression. Postpartum struggles. Grief. They are real, and deserve real care — not just yoga and self-care memes.
Nutrition and movement aren’t about looks.
They’re about energy, immunity, long-term strength, and emotional stability. Diet culture is out — sustainable, joyful health is in.
Your gut matters. Your hormones matter. Your voice matters.
If something feels off, say something. Push for answers. Seek second opinions. You know your body best.

This isn’t about pressure. It’s about power.
Your health is power. Your health is yours.
Let this week be a starting point. Book that appointment. Rest if you need. Move if you can. Talk to someone. Help another woman. Or, just promise yourself you’ll stop putting off that one thing.

Women like Susan are turning pain into purpose. As a survivor, she brings art workshops into cancer treatment rooms to help others heal. We’ve raised $273 to help her — and every dollar helps. Support Susan’s dream here.

In health!
