Ep 66. Everybody, Every Story - Cancer Awareness Podcast: Breast Screening

In this second episode of the 'Everybody, Every Story' Cancer Awareness Podcast, which marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month (Wednesday 1 Oct 2025 – Friday 31 Oct 2025), host Kavya sits down with Dr. Lucy Rushworth and seven incredible women - Charlotte, Linda, Meena, Melissa, Namrata, Sadia, and Sue - to talk about something that can feel a little awkward but is absolutely vital: breast screening. Screening can be scary to think about. Myths, misconceptions, and fears often hold people back, but putting off or avoiding screening can mean diagnosing cancer later, when it’s harder to treat. That’s why these women are opening up and sharing their stories. In this episode, you’ll hear honest conversations about breast screening - the ups and downs, the fears, and even those awkward moments we all secretly worry about. You’ll also hear the facts that cut through the myths - and reminders that screening really can save lives. Most importantly, you’ll meet women of different ages, backgrounds, and ethnicities who want to empower you with their experiences. Their message is simple: you’re not alone, and talking about screening makes a difference. This podcast series is brought to you by South Lincolnshire Rural Primary Care Network.
