#31 - Six Hours Before the Diagnosis: Cal’s Irregular Mammogram

In this powerful episode of Mature(ish) Mommas: Life Unfiltered, Caley and Megan tackle a topic that’s both deeply personal and universally important: mammograms. The conversation starts with humor—Megan shares her lighthearted take on the infamous “boob smashers”—but quickly shifts as Caley opens up about her own recent experience.At the time of recording, Caley had just received news of an abnormal mammogram that revealed a 2.5 cm mass. She walks listeners through the biopsy process and, more importantly, through her mindset while waiting for results. You’ll hear her choosing gratitude, positivity, and perspective—even as fear and uncertainty loomed large.What makes this episode especially moving is what listeners already know but Caley didn’t yet: just hours after recording, her biopsy results would confirm breast cancer. Hearing her courage and optimism in that moment makes her authenticity all the more powerful.It’s raw. It’s real. And it’s exactly why this podcast exists.
