The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves.

\\n

We\'re continuing to bring attention to breast cancer awareness month by sharing resources and celebrating the experiences of survivors. In Session 327, we heard from Breast Cancer survivor, Marissa Thomas. This week, we\'re joined by Dr. Ryland Gore, a board certified, fellowship-trained surgeon specializing in breast surgical oncology. Her work focuses on the diagnosis and surgical treatment of benign and malignant breast disease. She is actively involved in studies on breast cancer and serves in community outreach programs as an advocate to help spread breast cancer awareness.\\xa0

\\n

During our conversation, Dr. Gore breaks down what exactly breast cancer is and what it does to the body, the unique risks of advanced types of Breast Cancer that Black women should be aware of, and small ways we can minimize our lifetime risk of a Breast Cancer diagnosis.
