    2026/07/22
    Breast Cancer Recovery, Nutrition, Hair Loss, Fear of Recurrence & Life After Treatment What does life after breast cancer really look like? In Part 2 of our conversation with breast cancer survivor, health coach, and food creator Leanne Citrone, we dive into the realities of breast cancer recovery, nutrition after cancer, hair loss, fear of recurrence, and finding yourself again after treatment. Leanne opens up about how her relationship with food changed during chemotherapy, the simple nutrition habits that helped her heal, healthy snack ideas, hydration, supplements, and working with an integrative physician to support long-term wellness. The conversation takes an emotional turn as Leanne reflects on losing her hair during chemotherapy, cold capping, the moment she chose to shave her head, and why helping another woman through hair loss has become one of the most meaningful parts of her survivorship. Chris and Leanne also discuss viewing chemotherapy and oncology appointments through a different lens, grounding meditation for scan anxiety, acupuncture and self-care during treatment, and the daily work of managing fear of cancer recurrence. Together, they explore how breast cancer can fundamentally change your priorities, relationships, and sense of self—and why healing continues long after treatment ends. Whether you're newly diagnosed, in active treatment, or navigating life after breast cancer, this episode offers practical wellness tips, honest conversations, and reassurance that you're not alone.

    Breast Cancer, Chemotherapy & Oral Health: What Every Patient Should Know (Part 1)
    2026/07/01
    In this episode of Boobalicious, hosts Chris and Jenni are joined by the founders of Uncancer—Dr Robin Lesser, Dr Abida Taher, and breast cancer survivor Shana Kligerman—to explore an often-overlooked side effect of cancer treatment: oral health. They discuss why chemotherapy, radiation, and other cancer treatments can lead to mouth sores (mucositis), dry mouth, tooth decay, burning mouth syndrome, and increased dental problems, and why these issues are too often ignored during treatment. The conversation also tackles the disconnect between oncology and dentistry, common myths about dental care during cancer treatment, and why survivorship should include protecting your oral health—not just surviving cancer.
