There is no way around it, breast cancer is hard. But as our guest today will tell you, trying to remain upbeat throughout treatment can have a positive impact on your life. Amy Elizabeth Chalmers Hicks brings a unique perspective. She was adopted so she doesn’t know her biological family’s health history, leaving her to navigate two cancer diagnoses without the insights many rely on to understand risk. However, despite these unknowns, when she found a lump, she stayed at ease, started treatment right away, surrounded herself with people who were loving and supportive and made a deep commitment to keeping a positive attitude. She is here today to share her inspiring story with us.

Facing Breast Cancer with PositivityJanuary 5, 2026
Men often don’t think of themselves as having breasts. For men, it’s their chest or their “pecs.” So it may come as a surprise to learn men are at risk of breast cancer. The fact is men have breast tissue and can get breast cancer. In the U.S., less than 1% of all cases occur in men, but it does happen. Today we are joined by Jake Messier, a man living with metastatic breast cancer, after being misdiagnosed twice and finally learning in August 2024 that it had advanced. Jake openly shares his story across active social media platforms and is dedicated to spreading awareness of male breast cancer, as well as the distinct mental and physical health struggles that go largely unaddressed when a man is navigating what is typically seen as a woman’s disease.
