Know Your Lemons: 12 Signs of Breast Cancer with Corinne Beaumont EP162

You probably know that breast cancer is a major killer of women worldwide. You may even know that, every year, more than 245,000 women are diagnosed with the disease in the United States alone. And one in every eight women will develop breast cancer at some point during their lives. As your doctor (hopefully) tells you at checkups, it's important to perform monthly self-checks to screen yourself for this potentially lethal disease—but, do you know what to look for? The fact is, many women don’t. On today's episode Cody and Corrine Beaumont, CEO and founder of the organization "Know Your Lemons",  help us learn about what breast cancer can look like (because lumps aren’t the only indicator that something’s wrong). Tune in to learn all about the 12 signs of breast cancer we need to be looking for. Also about how to perform self breast-exams and when to do our self-exams during our monthly cycle. Early detection is the goal. According to the World Health Organization, a shocking one-third of deaths from breast cancer could be decreased if detected and treated early. This means nearly 400,000 lives could be saved every year. This is an episode you won't want to miss and you'll definitely want to share with all of the girls in your life.About our guest:When Corrine Beaumont lost her grandmothers to breast cancer, she wanted to know what she should be doing for her breast health, but wasn’t able to find information that simply answered the basic questions. As a designer, she decided to do something about the lack of engaging information available. So she moved to London, got a PhD in patient communication and tested and refined the best ways to educate breast health information for a diverse audience. Later on when her close friend died from the disease, she left her job as a business professor, and started the charity with her own savings. In 2017, Corinne founded the Know Your Lemons Foundation, a global charity with a groundbreaking campaign teaching women all over the world the signs and symptoms of breast cancer in a unique and visual way.Did you learn something new today?
