🎗️ Pink October – A Personal Reflection As October brings #BreastCancerAwareness Month into focus, it feels especially close to my heart. A young woman in my family faced breast cancer, and it was a reminder of how suddenly life can change. Her strength through the diagnosis, treatment, and recovery has been nothing short of inspiring. But it also highlighted the importance of early detection and regular check-ups. Breast cancer doesn't discriminate by age, and catching it early can make all the difference. If you haven’t scheduled a check-up recently, I encourage you to take this step — for yourself and for your loved ones. 💗 Beyond the medical side, we cannot forget the emotional weight that this journey brings. It affects not only those diagnosed but their families and close friends too. It’s a roller coaster of fear, hope, and resilience. I’ve learned the power of empathy and how essential it is to be there for those fighting, in any way we can — whether it’s listening, offering a helping hand, or simply showing up. To everyone impacted by breast cancer — whether you’re fighting it, supporting someone through it, or remembering those we've lost — you are not alone. #PinkOctober #BreastCancerAwareness #EarlyDetection #Empathy #StrongerTogether

The event industry is FILLED with curveballs but when we added this 6' LED Awareness Ribbon 🎗 to our inventory during breast cancer awareness month in 2023, it was symbolic of our support of those around us battling something. But NOW... it's personal. We no longer sympathize. We UNDERSTAND what it means. We understand how important it is to drive awareness. We comprehend the magnitude of what it can cause. We've lived out the impact it can have emotionally, mentally, spiritually, financially, and physically. It can represent dismantled families, shattered hopes and dreams, shifts in priorities, and redefining life in every way. We pray that at every event this enters, it represents: 🎗PREVENTION 🎗AWARENESS 🎗CURES 🎗SURVIVAL 🎗RESILIENCE 🎗REMISSION 🎗VICTORIOUS BATTLES This Teach on it Tuesday was a lesson learned over the last 11 months. May you never have to learn it from experience. __________________________________ ➕𝑭𝒐𝒍𝒍𝒐𝒘 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒏𝒕 & 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒊𝒑𝒔 S.H.I.F.T.

✨ Just Voted! ✨ Today, I walked into the voting polls decked out in a sunny outfit that matched my bright disposition. After casting my ballot, I turned to one of the volunteers and asked if she could "sticker me" (because who doesn’t love that iconic “I Voted” sticker moment? 📸). As I hit “Live” to share the experience and introduced myself—Dr. Michele D. Clark, founder of LIFT After Breast Cancer—the volunteer’s eyes lit up. She shared that she is a 22-year breast cancer survivor! 💗 We embraced, and the connection was instant. She even expressed a heartfelt desire to support LIFT After Breast Cancer however she could. We exchanged contacts, and the impact of that small interaction left me inspired. Lesson learned: Sometimes, the magic lies in radiating positivity and confidently sharing who you are and what you stand for. It’s incredible how this can draw people into your mission, opening doors to new connections and opportunities. 🌟 Remember, your story and passion are worth sharing. You never know who you might inspire or who might be ready to join your cause. 💬 Have you had an unexpected, meaningful connection lately? I'd love to hear about it in the comments. 👇 Let's keep the good energy flowing! 🌻 #IVoted #BreastCancerAwareness #HighVibes #Connection #LIFTAfterBreastCancer #Community #Positivity #VoterPride #SupportSurvivors #Empowerment #ImpactfulMoments #BreastCancerSurvivor

October is a month that will make you THINK And Wednesdays are for PINK We're putting the two together and highlighting Breast Cancer Awareness Month for all of the women out there! *poetry's not our thing but we wanted to try something new (let us know how we did🙂) 👉Breast cancer awareness month helps us shine a light on a disease that has attacked some of the most important women in our lives. It has taken too many lives and still poses as a threat to women everywhere. Among the stats, black women are more likely 📈to have breast cancer due to our biology and lack of resources available in most of our communities. ❌THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING Share this post to SHARE THE KNOWLEDGE Wednesdays are for PINK so tell us how you're going to honor your loved one this month in the comments below! #breastcancer #breastcancersupport #breastcancerwarrior #breastcancersurvivor #breastcancerfighter #breastcancerresearch #breastcancerawareness #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth #breastcancerawarenessmonth #blackwomenmentalhealth #selfcaretips #perfectlyimperfect #selfcare #HarmonyWithin #PerfectlyImperfectCounseling #womenempowerment #blackwomenswellness #blackwomenmentalhealthmatters #blackwomenmental #selfcarefirst #empowermentsessions✔️ #empowermentsession💥 #empowermentsession #empowermentsessions #selfworthcoach #selfworthadvice #selfworth💯 #selfworth

As October comes to a close, so does Breast Cancer Awareness month. Don’t wait until next year to get your annual check-up or spread the awareness. Cancer does not care. How old you are. How tall or short you are. How rich or poor you are. How successful you are. How fit you are. How smart you are. Cancer does not care. I felt I was being punished for something & that’s why cancer invaded my body. What did I do wrong? The answer is NOTHING. I did nothing to provoke cancer. I just lost the roulette wheel but rather than look at myself as a victim, I choose to use this horrible experience as a platform to educate other people to advocate for their health. Be your biggest cheerleader & make your health a priority. Early detection saves lives, it saved mine. Fight like a girl! Fractional Marketing Agency for any size business or project.

🎗️ October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time to shine a light on the challenges faced by those affected by this disease and the ripple effects it has on relationships. Breast cancer doesn’t just impact the individual diagnosed; it profoundly affects partners, family members, and friends. The journey through diagnosis, treatment, and recovery can bring about a whirlwind of emotions—fear, uncertainty, and, at times, hope. These feelings can create both strain and strength within relationships. Open communication becomes essential. Sharing fears, concerns, and triumphs can either bridge the gap or create distance. It’s a reminder that, as we support those we love, we must also take care of our own emotional well-being to foster resilience in our bonds. Let’s come together during this important month to raise awareness, share our stories, and support one another. By fostering understanding and compassion, we can make a difference in the lives of those affected by breast cancer. 🩷How has breast cancer impacted your relationships or those around you? I encourage you to share your experiences in the comments. #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth #Support #Relationships #EmotionalHealth #Caregivers #Nottinghamshire #RelateNottinghamshire
