Key Highlights: 1. Trust your gut, it could save your life. 2. Don't do it alone, community is what will help you do what you need to do even if you're afraid. 3. Be the best advocate you can be for yourself, this is your life and your body – you are worth  the fight. About our guest: Maimah Karmo is the Founder/CEO of the Tigerlily Foundation (Tigerlily) and an eighteen-year survivor of breast cancer. On February 28, 2006, at 4:45 p.m., Maimah was diagnosed with Stage 2 triple negative breast cancer. She had no family history and was 32-years old.  While undergoing her second round of chemotherapy, she made a promise to God that if she survived, she would create an organization to educate, empower, advocate for and support young women affected by breast cancer.  A first-generation immigrant from Liberia, who has experienced disparities first-hand, she is a leader in the women's health field, creating and implementing national health initiatives for women and girls, with a goal of eliminating disparities of age, stage and color.  Under Maimah' s leadership, Tigerlily Foundation has launched national and global health initiatives focused on ending disparities, through the #InclusionPledge, partnering with global stakeholders, with a call to action to recognize health disparities as a social justice issue; and working to end disparities for black women in our lifetime. She is a global thought leader, health advocate and philanthropist, committed to justice and equity for all. Maimah also works directly with women and their families to connect the patient with better care and knowledge. through events such as the Annual Young Women's Breast Health Day on the Hill and other philanthropic efforts and successful educational and support programs.  You can find Maimah on Twitter, on Instagram, and on Facebook.  Check out the Tigerlily Foundation here. Key Moments: At 6 minutes 25 seconds “I ended up finding the flower one day, the tiger lily… It's like a woman, beautiful, different layers to her, and also when people are going through treatment there's a sense of so much fear. You do lose things in a way. You may lose your petals: your hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, breasts, other parts of your body, male or female. The flower is a perennial, so in the fall, winter, the petals fall off but in the spring and summer, they blossom again.  I want people who are coming to Tigerlily to feel that sense of: I'm going through this time of dormancy and things are falling off, but that means I could grow and transform into something beautiful and amazing and just badass.You could find beauty, strength and be transformed throughout the cancer journey.” Disclaimer: All content and information provided in connection with Manta Cares is solely intended for informational and educational purposes only.  This content and information is not intended to be a substitute for medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Maimah Karmo is the founder and CEO of The Tigerlily Foundation and a fifteen-year survivor of breast cancer. She's appeared in major media including USA Today, US News, Cosmopolitan, CBS, The Oprah Winfrey Show, and so much more. She's a sought-after speaker by the media and for policy events and a prominent philanthropist. Under her leadership, the Tigerlily Foundation has launched national and global health initiatives focused on ending disparities through the #inclusion pledge, participating with global stakeholders with a call to action to recognize health disparities as a social justice issue, and working to end disparities for Black women in our lifetime. She's a global health advocate dedicated to justice and equity for all. Maimah was born and raised in Liberia, West Africa until she was fifteen years old, and in that time she experienced three wars. Each time they escaped, and many times they returned—in large part because Maimah's parents believed in philanthropy and helping those who did not have the privilege to escape themselves. After escaping to America and starting a new life, Maimah worked to build up her own dream life. Just as it felt like it was starting to come to fruition, she found a lump in her breast. After fighting to get it examined—all of the doctors said she was too young to have breast cancer—she was finally diagnosed and treated for cancer. Women, people of color, and especially the intersection of those two are at a higher risk of being overlooked by the medical community. Most women are not taught to fight and to advocate for themselves the way Maimah was. That's why she feels responsible for advocating for those who cannot do so themselves.   The Biggest Helping: Today's Most Important Takeaway “I live by a lot of quotes, and there's a quote by Dan Millman, it says ‘Love is a warrior's sword, everywhere it cuts, it gives life, not death.' And that's something that I think, if you're here, you're a spirit in this body, in this vessel, for this time. What you're here to do is to love yourself and honor and love life. And how do you do that? You honor your temple. Not just your body but your mind, your spirit. And when you're given much and you're able to breathe, then you have to give to others.”   --   Thank you for joining us on The Daily Helping with Dr. Shuster.

A cancer diagnosis sucks no matter what — but factors like income, education, racism, geography, housing, and access to health care, known as "social determinants of health," can worsen the burden. When researchers zoom out from individual experiences and survey cancer survivors, they see patterns called social determinants of health. Individual circumstances such as economic stability, physical environment, racial bias, proximity to a provider, or fluency in that provider's language can influence a survivor's health outcome before any cancer treatment begins. In this episode, we share stories of cancer mavericks who rebelled against the foreshadowing of health disparities. 23-year survivor Mary P. Lovato started a support group at her pueblo in New Mexico that expanded to reach American Indian and Alaska Native tribes across the United States. After learning she had breast cancer at 31, Maimah Karmo made it her mission to advocate for young women, Black women, and those with metastatic disease — and to end health disparities in our lifetime. Finally, health disparities researcher Dr. Carmen Guerra shares how the University of Pennsylvania's Abramson Cancer Center nearly doubled the number of Black patients in its clinical trials.

This week's guest is a true changemaker and force for good in healthcare. Maimah Karmo, President & CEO of the Tigerlily Foundation joins the show to discuss how she's advocating and driving actionable solutions in our industry. Plus, she shares her love of Michael Jackson's Thriller album.

Following our episode on policy and the power of patient advocacy, we felt it important to hear from someone on the receiving end of our advocacy work. In other words, patient advocacy from a legislator's perspective.  Specifically, we wanted to speak with Representative Debbie Wasserman Shultz, a breast cancer survivor herself and someone who has worked hard for more than a decade on laws to help Americans impacted by breast cancer. We were joined by Metavivor Stage IV Stampede Florida captain Abigail Johnston, who is an inspirational advocate in her own right. So think of this as a snapshot of the kind of conversations countless advocates have had in the past with members of Congress. But this time with a congressperson who's actually put her votes and actions to work for all of us.  Also joining us is Maimah Karmo, President of the Tigerlilly Foundation, speaking about her friendship and work with Rep. Wasserman Shultz over the years.  More info available on our website www.ourmbclife.orgGot something to share?  Feedback? Email:  ourmbclife@sharecancersupport.orgSend us a voice recording via email or through speakpipe on our website.Follow on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter @ourmbclife

Today, instead of my usual shenanigans, I’d like to treat you to something very special that we have been working on here at OffScrip Media.One of the privileges we have here besides creating and producing epic shows on our network like Am I Dying, Brave New Weed, and NORDpod, is the ability to diversity and expand to producing original series — and we think you’re really going to like what you’re about to listen to. We are handing over the entirety of today’s show to episode 1 of The #BCSM Podcast, a 3-part narrative about how breast cancer patients dared to be the change they wished to see, saw an opportunity to fill a need and created the Breast Cancer Social Media Community, or BCSM. What began in 2011 as a conversation on Twitter between two intrepid young adult breast cancer survivors has evolved into a global network of patients, caregivers, clinicians, and researchers dedicated to empowering those affected by breast cancer. Once you listen to this episode, I urge you to subscribe to the series by searching for B-C-S-M in your favorite podcasting app. This is a labor of love for us. I promise you: you will not be disappointed. And now, without further ado, please enjoy episode one of BCSM.

Join us as we revisit our inaugural episode with Maimah Karmo of the Tigerlily Foundation. The #inclusionpledge initiative was started when our Trailblazer series co-host and the founder of Angel In Disquise, Inc, Jersi Baker, raised her voice at a conference asking why no one looked like her on stage even when the discussion was on racial disparities in healthcare for people living with MBC. From there, the TigerLilly Foundation’s Maimah Karmo in partnership with the founders of GRASP, Christine Hodgdon and Julia Maues and many others, developed the #inclusionpledge to get organizations and individuals to commit to taking real action to change these disparities. We will catch up with Maimah, Christine and Julia later this month but we wanted to re-release our inaugural podcast with Maimah since it is so very relevant still. Check out our blog and episode notes on our website, www.ourmbclife.org. We are found on FAcebook, Twitter, and Instagram @ourmbclife.

Long ago, on an Internet far, far away, before there was a hashtag for everything, the average cancer patient couldn't instantly manifest their own support community on a mobile app. It was just you, maybe your family, a few friends, and the doctor. So what was one to do for support, guidance, lifehacks, resources without all the things we take for granted today? OffScrip Media is proud to present The #BCSM Podcast, a 3-part original mini-series about how breast cancer patients dared to be the change they wished to see, saw an opportunity to fill a need and created the Breast Cancer Social Media Community. What began in 2011 as a conversation on Twitter has evolved into a global network of patients, caregivers, clinicians, and researchers dedicated to empowering those affected by breast cancer. This ground breaking series features inspiring breast cancer advocates and change-makers who continue reveal and uplift voices within the breast cancer community. Subscribe today to the #BCSM Podcast, leave us a rating, share on social media and tell all your friends to listen.

Today on the show, another Wayback Machine throwback episode with my dear friend and fellow survivor advocate Maimah Karmo, Maimah an author, speaker, coach, podcaster, manifestor, convener, Founder/CEO of the Tigerlily Foundation and, well, — she's a unicorn. Basically, she's just a unicorn so let's just leave it at then. Join us as we take a trip down memory lane to a time before iPhones, Android, Facebook, Twitter, and the original Kung Fu Panda. Yes, I am talking about 2007 and the dawn of the young adult cancer movement. From Liberian refugee to misdiagnosed triple-negative breast cancer patient, to self-proclaimed "chemo-induced nonprofit founder," Maimah has been a dominant voice speaking out on the issues of healthcare disparities and invisible suffering in the black community. There's pretty much nothing Maimah can't do — and you're about to understand why. Enjoy the show. Visit https://www.tigerlilyfoundation.org for more information.

Exploring life with MBC is our mission. Everyone’s cancer is different but what should not be different is our access to healthcare, treatments, and trials that can maintain our quality of life and improve overall survival. In this episode, our conversation with two women, Jersi Baker and Maimah Karmo who are using their voice to ask questions, challenge norms, and demand a change to who is sitting at the table and striving to create racial equity in the MBC and BC community.

In this episode of the TruthSeekah Podcast TruthSeekah speaks with Maimah Karmo about her story of holding on to the promises of God. When Maimah was only 8 years old she remembers having a dream where she spoke to God. God told Maimah in this dream that no matter what happens to her in life she would always be protected to carry out her divine will. After many death attempts and life altering situations that looked glim Maimah still held on to the promises she received from God as a child. Through much adversity and heartache Maimah recounts God's hand of provision upon her life and has persevered to share her story. After beating breast cancer Maimah has had the opportunity to reach thousands of people through her multiple appearances on the Oprah Winfrey show and also participating on her own TED Talk. Maimah now does private retreats and personal coaching where she speaks to men and women about fulfilling their destiny and embracing spirituality to connect with their creator. In the later half of the interview we speak about mediumship and connecting with the spirits of the deceased and how it is becoming more and more accepted within many christian circles. We see a picture of Jesus upon the mount of transfiguration meeting with elder champions of the faith Moses and Elijah. Jesus's garments and face transformed into their light form radiating with a bright white light and this was witnessed by not only by Saint Peter but also James and John. This was the first time that someone was privy to be a part of what Jesus practiced during his prayer time. We find that he wasn't simply praying for people or going over a prayer list but actually communing with the Father and and meeting the saints and prophets of old. Many people of recent years in christianity have reported their elders who have since passed into eternity meeting with them face to face as apparitions in hotel rooms as well as in dreams and visions in the night. In the closing words I speak about calling God Father and why that is important for me because during the show we referred to God as He or She. For me it is personal because I grew up without a father and God promises in the scriptures to be a Father to the fatherless. I believe the scripture and that particular promise and have seen God show up and be the Father that I never knew. Practically and supernaturally I have seen God step into my life and become a friend closer than a brother. I saw God begin to teach me through every situation and circumstance in my life. I've also experienced correction as a true father would correct his son or daughter, God began to correct me when I was wrong or in error. I would be led to jobs to work for a period of time long enough for God to instill a character trait or trade that wasn't imparted by a father. This included practice things such as landscaping, changing oil and sheer work ethic. Thequestion that I asked at the end of the discussion was that as much as I saw God as a Father in my life, I wonder if those out there raised by their father could relate more to the feminine aspects of God being more of a mother figure for them. I see God as the father reaching down and creating mankind out of the dust of the Earth and the Earth being represented as the mother Gaia becoming pregnant with new life and birthing mankind. But those qualities imparted only by a mother that the soul does not receive being raised only by a man does God show up in that aspect for them?

It feels almost blasphemous as a mom to say that motherhood isn't everything in my life... and yet it's not.  And I don't think it should be. {gasp} On today's episode of With That Being Said, Erica and I chat with Maimah Karmo about the role passion, purpose, and parenthood have in her life and the lives of women everywhere.  Maimah is a philanthropist, author, speaker, and pretty amazing mom who believes that there is more to life than just meeting the needs of others- even if "others" means your kids. Even if you aren't a mom, the conversation on this episode will still resonate.  We all know what it is to set aside our dreams for another person out of love- join the conversation and let's talk about why that might not be such a a good idea. As a special bonus for my blog readers- I want to give you all free access to one of my favorite "strength/personality quizzes.   Sally Hogshead's How to Fascinate book and corresponding quiz are... well, fascinating.  She approaches the idea of 'what should i do with my life' from the perspective of not how you see yourself but rather how others experience you.  It's an eye-opening look at how you influence the world around and a great glimpse into what your purpose might be.

I was recently on an airplane with my good friend, Maimah Karmo. When we hit some turbulence, she got nervous. At that moment, I felt a story well up inside me which needed to be expressed. I knew I was not the originator of the story; it was my job to just be the channel and allow it to flow out of me. I turned to her and asked: "Maimah, do you know why airplanes exist?" What happened then was the beautiful unfolding of a story about why airplanes exist. It's the same story for the explanation of why anything, including you, exists. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

Tune in as we talk with the Maimah Karmo founder of the Tigerlily Foundation. The Tigerlily Foundation is a organization geared to educate, empower, advocate for, support and inspire young women affected by breast cancer. Guest Bio - Maimah Karmo is a mother, daughter, sister, niece, cousin, friend and author. She is also a breast cancer survivor. On February 28, 2006, at 4:45 p.m., she was diagnosed with Stage 2breast cancer. She had no family history of breast cancer; and was only 32-years old. She had been doing all the right things – exercising, taking her vitamins and eating healthy. She didn’t fit the profile. She had been told by her doctor that she was too young to get breast cancer. How could this have happened? She didn't know the answer to that question, but she knew that her life would never be the same again. In May, after she had been given her second chemotherapy treatment, she decided to create an organization that would empower, educate, support and end isolation for young women affected by breast cancer. The organization was named Tigerlily Foundation (Tigerlily).
