The Boob Project

12/03/2026

Your b***s aren’t just b***s. They’re connected to your whole body.

Breast health isn’t isolated. Your breasts are influenced by the systems that keep your entire body functioning and in balance.

At The B**b Project, we talk about what we call the Big 3, the body systems that play a huge role in breast health.

1️⃣ Lymphatic & immune system
Your breasts are rich in lymphatic vessels. This system helps move waste, toxins, and immune cells throughout the body. When lymph flow is sluggish or congested, inflammation can increase and the body struggles to clear what it no longer needs.

2️⃣ Endocrine (hormone) system
Breast tissue is extremely hormone-sensitive. Estrogen, progesterone, insulin, and stress hormones all influence how breast tissue feels and behaves throughout the month and across different life stages.

3️⃣ Digestive system
Your gut helps process hormones, eliminate toxins, and regulate inflammation. When digestion is sluggish or the microbiome is out of balance, it can affect hormone metabolism and increase toxic load in the body.

When one system is under pressure, the others often feel it too.

That’s why understanding your breasts isn’t just about checking for lumps.
It’s about understanding your body as a connected system.

And when you learn how everything works together, you’re far more empowered to protect and support your health.

This is exactly what we explore at The B**b Project.

✨ Body literacy.
✨ Breast confidence.
✨ Whole-body understanding.

Reclaiming women’s health.

For decades, medicine studied the male body and assumed the results applied to women too.

Yet women represent 51% of the population, and our biology has historically been under-researched.

That gap still shapes how many women experience healthcare today, feeling dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told their symptoms are “normal”.

But things are changing.

Women are learning their bodies.
Asking more questions.
Sharing knowledge.
And advocating for their health.

Because women’s health should never be an afterthought.

Today we celebrate the power of women who are reclaiming it. 💛

Do you actually feel confident checking your breasts… or are you mostly guessing?

Most people have never been properly shown how to do a thorough breast self-check. At The B**b Project, we teach you the skills so you can feel confident in knowing your own body.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn:
✨ How to check your breasts confidently
✨ What to actually feel for
✨ How to detect changes even under nodular or lumpy tissue
✨ How to understand and track your normal

Because when you know your normal, you’re far more likely to notice when something changes.

This session is practical and supportive with hands-on learning using simulation breast models and guided self-check practice (fully clothed, no need to get your kit off 😉).

Your health is worth knowing. 💗

New month means it’s time to check on your b***s.

Not a rushed, distracted, “quick prod in the shower.”
A proper check. Intentional. Calm. Thorough.

Set aside about 30 minutes.
Lay down.
Set the mood (yes, really).
Go one breast at a time.

And remember the 7 P’s 👇

✨ Physical appearance
Start with a mirror check. Look for visual changes: skin texture, dimpling, redness, swelling, ni**le changes.

✨ Position
Lay down with a pillow under one shoulder. Put that arm above your head. Use the opposite hand to check the breast.

✨ Perimeter
You’re checking more than just the b**b.
From collarbone → under armpit → bra line → centre of sternum.

✨ Pads
Use the pads of your first 3 fingers (the fleshy part, not your fingertips).

✨ Palpation
Small circular motions, about the size of a 5 cent coin.

✨ Pressure
Light (skin level)
Medium (halfway down)
Deep (right down to the bone)

✨ Pattern
Start in the armpit.
Move in up-and-down strokes.
Light, medium, deep at each spot.
Step the size of a 5 cent piece and keep moving across the whole breast.

This is about knowing your normal.
Building body literacy.
Trusting your own two hands.

And if you’re thinking, “I’m not sure I’m doing it right”, that’s exactly why The B**b Project exists.

Your monthly reminder is here.
Put it in your calendar. 💗

“It’s a lifeline to know this info.” 💗
— Lucy, previous participant

This is exactly why The B**b Project exists.
Because understanding your body is essential.
And confidence in your own hands can change everything.

🤲 You can’t learn this from a flyer.

We’re often handed pamphlets, posters, or quick instructions and told:
“Check your breasts. Early detection is important.”

But no one teaches you what to feel for.
No one shows you what’s normal for your body.
And no flyer can teach confidence through touch.

Yes, mammograms are important.
They’re clinical. They’re necessary.
But they’re not the whole picture.

Breast awareness happens between appointments, in your own hands, in your own time.

That’s where The B**b Project comes in.

Our nurse-led workshops focus on hands-on learning:
🤲 Practising with simulation breast models
🧠 Understanding different breast tissue
💗 Guided self-checks on your own body (always clothed)
✨ Leaving empowered, not anxious

Because knowing your b***s shouldn’t feel clinical, it should feel like self-care.

News like this is exactly why we created the b**b project. Feeling confident checking your breasts is more important than ever.

So many women are never shown how to feel their breasts or what to feel for. Knowing your normal and having a regular self-examination routine can help you notice changes early and act on them quickly.

If you don't feel confident checking your breasts or want a refresher, come to our next workshop.

Breast cancer numbers in young women are soaring, with more than 1,000 women aged 20 to 39 diagnosed with the deadly disease in Australia last year.

The increase in cases has prompted specialists to call on women as young as 20 to be 'breast aware', by doing self-checks and monitoring any lumps or changes in breast tissue closely.

Watch live 6pm for a FULL report.

We hear this all the time:
“I don’t need to do breast self-examinations, I get mammograms.”
Or…
“My hands wouldn’t pick up what a machine can.”

Here’s something worth pausing on.

A 2011 study looking at how women actually discover breast cancer found this:
👉 43% of women detected their cancer through self-examination or accidental findings.
👉 43% discovered it through mammograms.

The same percentage.

That matters.

Because your hands aren’t trying to replace imaging, they’re working with it.
They’re with you every month. They notice subtle changes. They know what your normal feels like.

Now imagine how those statistics could shift if more people felt confident checking their breasts.
If more people knew what to feel for.
If breast self-exams weren’t rushed or confusing, but intentional and empowering.

That’s exactly why The B**b Project exists.

We teach you how to check properly, hands-on, nurse-led, and with confidence, so you can trust your body and your instincts.

✨ Mammograms matter.
✨ Early detection matters.
✨ And your hands matter too.

Come and learn how at The B**b Project.
