Show Notes

Marla Tellez returns for her 10th year as host of Kickin’ Cancer — and this time, as a new mom. In this special installment of our mini-series, she sits down with Amy Cohen Epstein to reflect on a decade of championing women’s health, the power of community, and the deeply personal reasons this cause continues to matter to her.

Kickin’ Cancer raises awareness and funds for the Lynne Cohen Foundation’s national network of preventive care clinics: providing mammograms, genetic testing, counseling, and other lifesaving services to women at increased risk for breast and ovarian cancer.
