The worst club with the best members.

In Episode 2 of Big C Energy, Alison Haislip sits down with comedian, creator, and breast cancer survivor Grace Helbig for an honest, hilarious, and deeply relatable conversation about navigating a breast cancer diagnosis.

Although Alison and Grace shared the exact same diagnosis — triple-positive breast cancer — their experiences and treatment journeys were completely different. Together, they talk about mammograms, biopsies, chemo brain, surgery, fertility, menopause, asking for help, and the strange reality that some of the best advice comes from other patients.

They also discuss the importance of advocating for yourself, finding humor during treatment, and why every newly diagnosed patient deserves a good blanket.

Topics discussed:

• Triple-positive breast cancer

• Mammograms and early detection

• Chemo brain and menopause

• Surgery and reconstruction

• Fertility preservation

• Asking for help

• Humor during treatment

• Supporting other patients

• Life after cancer
