For The Love Of Cups

For The Love Of Cups Everyone deserves to be supported and benefit from early detection. Roughly 50% of women over 40 have dense breasts and most don't know it.

FOR THE LOVE OF CUPS is a non profit 501c3 nonprofit organization ending disparities in breast cancer outcomes to improve and extend the quality of life for all survivors. Since the Covid-19 Pandemic began resources and support have been increasingly more difficult to access, especially for women facing breast cancer. Additionally, more women are delaying their routine screening appointments resul

ting in delayed access to care. Mammogram alone is not enough to detect breast cancer in women with dense breasts. There is no national standard requiring physicians to notify a woman of her breast density nor the follow up ultrasound screening required to more accurately determine her results. We empower women with the tools and resources they need to learn more about their risk factors and receive reliable screening methods. For women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer we offer support groups to help you through your journey. Please connect with us and we will send you the information. In order to truly make an impact to not only save lives but to improve the quality of life of breast cancer fighters and survivors Lisa formed For The Love Of Cups. Love is behind everything that Lisa believes in, it is her driving force. Inspired by her mom and motivated by her daughters she has made 4TLC her mission, to beat cancer so her daughters won't have to. Please join in and support this movement.

I’m proud to be heading to Capitol Hill on July 16 with the most incredible group, combining our efforts and our purpose, the .advocates Breast Cancer Early Detection Coalition (BCEDC) to advocate for better policies and funding for breast cancer screening, research, and treatment.

As someone who had dense breast tissue, missed breast cancer detection, a survivor and a daughter of a two time breast cancer survivor, I believe early detection is critical. and that everyone deserves to benefit from it—It’s time Congress makes it a priority

Four days after my surgery, I received a call from my surgeon. “ARE YOU SITTING DOWN?” she asked.

I wasn’t. I had been sitting, but the weight of her words made me immediately stand and begin pacing. I braced myself for the news from my pathology report.

Today we begin officially preparing for The Breast Density Summit hosted by For The Love Of Cups.

I’ve been dreaming of hosting a transformative event to bring together the most brilliant and passionate people who understand the risks and pitfalls of breast density for years now.

The current state of notifying women of their breast density and providing comprehensive and trustworthy screenings for them has changed a lot and we need to ensure we get that information into the hands of women so they can navigate their breast health and their mammograms effectively.

Because I believe everyone deserves the benefit of early detection.

This is for people who:
• Are dedicated individuals passionate about breast health advocacy
• Have experience in healthcare, patient advocacy, or breast cancer survivorship
• Are committed to improving breast cancer screening standards

What we need:
- Speakers & Panel Members
- Focus groups of women who can share about their experience with their breast health screening
- Help organizing the event
- Donors and Sponsors

We are looking for: Advocates, survivors, caregivers, physicians, oncologists, radiologists, and breast surgeons to fill a variety of roles and positions to build a task force for The Breast Density Summit.

Comment below and I’ll send you the information to apply.

In my proudest series of interviews, Voices Of Hope I got a chance to talk with Megan aka Warrior Megsie, who gave multiple nuggets to ponder about living, surviving, and thriving in life through fighting unexpected adversities. This episode is the first episode of the series “Voice of Hope”.

I'll be highlighting these remarkable stories all week long as we begin October for Breast Cancer Awareness, Advocacy and Support.

She’s a sought-after influencer, speaker, and blogger in the cancer community. Her blog, Life on the Cancer Train, is about the struggles of being a young adult cancer survivor while advocating for better treatments and resources.

She became heavily involved in patient advocacy and research post-treatment. In her spare time, she is a consumer reviewer for the Department of Defense Breast Cancer Research Program, a contributing writer for WebMD, and an active member of the AYA cancer community. Megan-Claire and her work have been featured in national press including The New York Times and People Magazine, as well as through numerous patient advocacy organizations.

Tune in and connect. Available everywhere you listen to podcasts. I'll leave links for itunes, spotify and youtube in the comments.

I hope you love it, if you do please share with someone you think could benefit from tuning in and leave a review to help us reach more women.

With love, Lisa

VOICES OF HOPE is a series of interviews with Breast Cancer Survivors I created because I was so inspired and honestly blown away by the power of the women I got to know through my support group and breast cancer community that I wanted to share their wisdom and experience for others to learn from and find additional support and see this disease through the lense of those us walking through it.

I'll be highlighting a story each day as we begin October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which can be both a celebratory month for some and triggering for most. My goal for October has always to bring more love and support to the survivors and thrivers of this disease, as we are more than aware of it every single day.

I hope you enjoy these stories and these women as much as I enjoyed creating the series, they are just as meaninful today if not more so when I originally shared them.

Today I am sharing Voices Of Hope Trailer for you to dive into. Feel free to keep on binging if you wish once you access the series on my podcast, The Sacred Purpose Podcast.
You can find it anywhere you listen podcasts. iTunes, Spotify and YouTube. I'll leave all links in the comments below.

I hope you love it, if you do please share with someone you think could benefit from tuning in and leave a review to help us reach more women.
With love, Lisa

Celebrating MQSA Enactment. What it means for you.Today every woman receiving a mammogram will be notified whether or not they have dense breast tissue.The letter will only tell you if you “do” of “do not” have dense breast tissue.You will need to talk to your provider to learn what classification of density you have on a range from 1 - 4.Note: Your breast density status can change so you will want to pay attention to these notifications over the years even if you were told you do not have dense breast tissue.This is a big first step in removing some of the many barriers to care.Our best defense is still advocacy and community care.xo
