Episode 3: Grit & Grace: Lauren Bygland’s Journey Through Breast Cancer as a New Mom

from Breakroom Mom · host Breakroom Mom

What happens when the joy of a new baby is met with the shock of a life-altering diagnosis? In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Lauren Bygland, who was diagnosed with breast cancer when her son was just five months old. In Episode 3 of Breakroom Mom, Lauren shares her journey through treatment, the emotional impact of mastectomy and hysterectomy, and how she used her runner’s mindset to battle the disease. Join us for a vulnerable conversation about motherhood, identity, and the unrealistic pressures we face as parents today.
