About the episode

In this powerful episode of The MenoPosse Show, we sit down with Lolly Ashburn, a breast cancer survivor and postmenopausal woman, who opens up about her journey with courage, faith, and honesty.

Lolly shares the moment she was first diagnosed and how she found the strength to move through treatment and recovery. She talks about navigating her diagnosis while already on the menopause journey, how hormones played a role in her treatment plan, and the impact of different medicines and their side effects.

She also talks candidly about the importance of speaking up for yourself during treatment, finding strength in faith, and leaning on community for support. Along the way, she offers practical takeaways that could help other women facing breast cancer while navigating menopause.

If you’ve ever wondered how breast cancer intersects with menopause, or you’re looking for encouragement from someone who’s been there, this conversation will speak to your heart.
