It is an exciting place to be when we can objectively look at history in a way, we can action meaningful changes today and into the future. I was privileged to recently write an article for Clinical Leader Magazine. I invite you to read this article with an open mind and warm heart as I highlight five specifications in the FDA’s diversity plan that I feel require emphasis. I welcome your support as together WE ARE THE CHANGE.
We are excited to share this much-needed conversation on Instagram about demystifying the breast cancer survivorship journey. One of the biggest myths about survivorship is that life can return to normal after cancer, and challenges can be quickly dealt with. Keisha and Maricia amplified this conversation on their social media connections with the Tigerlily Foundation to detail key issues experienced in survivorship that are rarely discussed.
The purpose of the HER+ Empower Listening Summit series is to shed light on this breast cancer sub-type. ANGELs Tameka Johnson, Amenda Lacy, and Maricia Cole attended this event along with Oncology Nurse Eric Cohen to share their expertise. If you or a loved one has experienced breast cancer treatment, follow these tips to help reduce side effects: stay hydrated, keep a strict sleep schedule, reduce your stress, keep up your physical activity, and sustain a nutritious diet.
Surviving Breast Cancer pledges to help break down access and barriers in vulnerable populations so we can reach equitable care for all.

Equal access to affordable, high-quality healthcare has the potential to improve patient outcomes and make life better. It can be crucial at an early stage, taking care of simple problems before they become emergencies. It also reduces early deaths. Digital health has the power to play a huge role in bringing peace-of-mind to those who are struggling with their health. However, there are also some negative aspects of new technology. It may exacerbate exclusion, introduce unexpected biases, widen the digital divide and leave some populations behind.
