Unpacking the Pink: How Breast Cancer Awareness Month Impacts Lives—Erica Neubert Campbell | Ep 83

If you care about deeper conversations around Breast Cancer Awareness Month, this episode is for you. I sit down with Erica Neubert Campbell, a breast cancer survivor who brings candor and warmth to a topic we often shy away from. Erica opens up about her journey from her own diagnosis through surgery, sharing the type of honest storytelling that moves people to action. You’ll get a peek at the rarely-discussed choices women have to make, and how a simple act of vulnerability from a near stranger can offer genuine hope.

For creators and podcasters, you’ll learn:

How personal storytelling can be a more powerful motivator than statistics or expert advice when it comes to awareness and advocacy.
The importance of finding and trusting community—even when telling tough stories or facing hard choices.

Erica also speaks about the roles of choice, trust, and vulnerability, plus offers a look behind the meaning of the pink ribbon and what truly makes support useful. You won’t want to miss her practical and heartfelt advice for anyone supporting someone with breast cancer.
