I was diagnosed at 44, and it seems like there are so many more women out there being diagnosed younger and younger these days. I also carry the BRCA1 genetic mutation and because of that, one of my sons we know carries that genetic mutation as well, son not daughter, and two of my daughters have not yet been tested, but I’m concerned about them getting this cancer early. And so we need to be aware that this is happening earlier.”
I know that it’s harder to get a mammogram these days, but I know also that if you do a self-exam and if you fight for it and you push for it, you are your own best advocate in getting this figured out before it’s too late.”
Christina Hibbert, Psy.D. is a clinical psychologist, #1 bestselling author, speaker and thought leader in the areas of women’s and maternal mental health, grief/loss/trauma, motherhood & self-worth, & breast cancer.

About Learn Look Locate:
We advocate the importance of self-breast exams, what to look for when performing a self-exam, and when to see a doctor. We provide resources for women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer, as well as for their families and friends.
The five-year survival rate for women who catch their cancer early is nearly 100%. Here’s an important statistic. Many women do not perform self-breast exams or see a doctor for regular screenings. Learn Look Locate LLC wants to highlight the work of organizations around the world that are working to promote early detection of breast cancer. We will feature stories of women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer and share their journeys.
There are several ways to diagnose breast cancer, including mammograms, biopsies, and ultrasounds. Once breast cancer is diagnosed, there are a few treatment options available, including surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. The best way to treat breast cancer is to catch it early and to get the best treatment possible.
There is a strong community of women who have been affected by breast cancer. In addition, there are a number of organizations and resources available to help women find the support they need.
Learn Look Locate LLC provides resources for women who want to get involved in the fight against breast cancer.
