Ready to cut through the clutter? Dr. Funk busts open myths around bras, deodorant, and cell phones, debunking once and for all what does—and doesn't—contribute to breast cancer. And she dives into the often-overlooked issue of breast density, shedding light on why many women need more than just the standard mammogram. We also hit on hormone replacement therapy, IUDs, saving the nipple, and foods that protect us from cancer. Our takeaway? Power up with knowledge and take charge of your health journey.We're also catching up with three fierce survivors and past guests—rock icon Melissa Etheridge, beach-read queen Elin Hilderbrand, and news legend Katie Couric—who share raw, unfiltered stories of staring down breast cancer and coming out stronger. Each has channeled their experiences into fierce advocacy and awareness, rallying others to be vigilant, informed, and empowered.With a mix of humor, heart, and actionable advice, today's Coop turns what could be a heavy topic into a lively, must-hear episode for every woman—and those who stand beside them. This isn't just breast cancer talk; it's a powerful reminder that we love you, to be your own advocate, stay informed, and go get your damn mammograms and secondary screenings. --This episode was produced by Kit Hoover and Harper McDonald.

NO SPOILERS! What's summer without a good beach read? By the QUEEN of the beach read?? Kimberly was somewhat alarmed that Hilderbrand is "hanging up her bikini" but thank god we have 26 other Nantucket novels to choose from. People, Hilderbrand is SO GOOD at this stuff. Listen in to find out why her narrative stance, atmospheric elements and structure make these books so solid. (Also: Kimberly has just a few teeny quibbles). There's no such thing as "guilty pleasure" where Hilderbrand is concerned--she's just so good at this stuff!

It's summer for real now, and we're hyped for our upcoming event at Hastings House in Beverly Farms, featuring four summer-read authors. This is a legit literary genre at this point, folks. So we fire things up with Elin Hilderbrand's final (maybe) summer novel, fittingly titled "Swan Song." What makes this new literary tradition so attractive? Sam and Hannah both have thoughts, comparing her to Edith Wharton and Jane Austen. She's incredibly efficient in setting a scene and establishing character, and even created a collective first person that's incredibly effective. It leads to a discussion on voice, especially in "Fire Exit," Morgan Talty's new gritty and real novel about identity and family. It's a special novel, for sure, and you should expect it to be on all the awards lists at the end of the year. How intimately linked are our identities to our DNA? "Becoming Little Shell" has some non-fiction thoughts on this as well. We go on and on about this, kinda. It's really good.  Hannah is less enthused by "The Return of Ellie Black," by Emiko Jean, which she listened to and felt a little bit like masochism. But she did get hooked and wanted to figure out what happpens. It's a lot different from her "Tokyo Ever After," a very sweet YA book. Definitely not sweet is "The Book of Elsewhere," a book co-written by none other than Keanu Reeves and China Mieville, which is really violent, but also super interesting and thoughtful. After powering through the beginning, Sam kinda loved it. Finally, Hannah has just finished "A Good Life," a bestseller from France now in translation about two sisters in the French countryside who teamed up to survive their mom.

This week, Hannah and Sam are just back from the New England Crime Bake, where crime-fiction authors gather, along with murder consultants and the like — don't miss people like Elly Griffiths, Deborah Crombie (the new one was "A Killing of Innocents"), and Chris Fabricant, who calls into question the way prosecutors use evidence in "Junk Science." Then we move into Hannah's love for "The Unmaking of June Farrow," by Adrienne Young, which has strong "Time Traveler's Wife" vibes, with time travel, romance, and mystery. Don't worry: It's not like "The Girl on the Train." Sam isn't quite as enamored with the new Paul Auster book, "Baumgartner," and is mildly troubled by the fact he's read three books this year, now, that feature 70-year-old men having sex. Sam says it's like "Wonder Boys" without any weed (Auster's book about a man whose sons and wife have died is "Book of Illusions," FYI). On the other hand, Hannah also loves "Down Here We Come Up," Sara Johnson Allen's debut novel, and not just because Sara lives in Ipswich. You can tell, in a good way, that Sara worked on the book for 15 years, a story of con artists and heart. Unfortunately, Sam follows with a couple books he just couldn't finish. Meh. Lessons learned. Not for him. Luckily, Hannah rescues the vibe with "Hotel Nantucket," her Elin Hilderbrand dive in preparation for our big event (it's not much like "Hotel New Hampshire," though), and Sam does like the new John Prine book (don't know who John Prine is? Ho boy, you're in luck). We're all over the map this week, folks, but next week we're doing a "gift-giving" thing, so stay tuned. 

If you're out here saying the SAME things as everyone else, in the same way, you're doing yourself, your clients & your business a disservice.

This convo is filled with so many golden nuggets of wisdom & inspiration, with some ridiculous stories, examples, and laughs along the way. We hope you enjoy! ☺️ IN THIS EPISODE, WE EXPLORE: ➡️ Sara's perspective on always having to share her “origin story”  ➡️ Tapping into yourself for content ideas  ➡️ Thinking about “brand voice” differently when you're a freelancer or solopreneur  ➡️ The difference between growing a business & growing a social media follower count ➡️ Which types of businesses have more trouble using AI for content creation ➡️ Tips for improving confidence in yourself & your message  ➡️ Being selective about who you get feedback from  ➡️ The issue with a lot of people's “I help” statements & how to make it better  Links & Resources Mentioned: >> Sara's Newsletter: https://betweenthelinescopy.com/subscribe >> Sara's About page: https://betweenthelinescopy.com/about >> FREE Testimonial Guide >> Buy us a coffee/support the podcast >> Get 20% off your next contract with The Contract Shop About Sara Noel: Sara Noel is a Website Copywriter + Marketing Mentor for business owners who want to craft compelling narratives and build better connections with their ideal clients and customers.
