What women carry through cancer is more than a diagnosis.  In our third episode of this miniseries, Dr. Raven Baxter explores how generations of women turned silence into advocacy and fear into progress, reshaping the perceptions and discussions around cancer over time. Through history, science, and a powerful story from Katrina M. Johnson — a woman who has lived through multiple breast cancer diagnoses and now advocates for others — the episode highlights how women continue to drive change in how cancer is understood, treated, and lived with.
