It's October, and you know what that means, pumpkins, Halloween, and boobs. As we kick off

Breast Cancer Awareness Month, who better to lead this discussion than the best-selling author

of Breasts, the owner's manual. Dr. Christy Funk is a board-certified breast cancer surgeon,

physician, and co-founder of the Pink Lotus

Breast Center. One of the many things that I appreciate about Dr. Funk is her refreshingly

holistic approach to this killer disease. She's a super geek for science and a tireless champion

for healthy habits. So whether you or someone you know

is currently dealing with breast cancer, or you just want to prevent it, listen to this conversation

as we dig into her four-pronged approach to beating the odds. Get ready to take control of your

health and learn how to make your cells say

thanks, but no thanks to cancer. I learned so much from this episode, and I know you will too.

Welcome to Made to Thrive. I'm your host, New York Times bestselling author Chris Carr, and it's my

mission to help you feel better, live bolder, and create a more meaningful life. Let's get started,

my friend. I have been so looking forward to this conversation. Welcome, Dr. Funk.

Thanks for having me, Chris. I'm so excited to be here.

We finally get to connect because I've been a fan of yours for a long time and we're kicking

off Breast Cancer Awareness Month with you and maybe you're listening to this later, but it is

October and obviously it is big time to talk about a very important topic.

And so I want to just start with the biggest question, which is, what do you wish that more

women knew about breast cancer? I wish women knew that breast cancer is so much more under your control than you probably

think or could ever even dream.

And that's it.
