Men Get Breast Cancer Too: Breaking the Stigma with Phil Alderson
Description
When you think of breast cancer, you probably don’t think of men, but you should.
In this episode, Phil Alderson shares his story of surviving male breast cancer, a diagnosis most men never imagine they’ll face. From the moment he found a lump to navigating isolation, stigma, and the lack of male-focused support, Phil’s honesty will challenge what you think you know about breast cancer.
As two survivors, one male, one female, Sonia and Phil go into:
- The reality of male breast cancer (yes, it happens)
- Why early detection saves lives
- How stigma and silence make men more vulnerable
- The need for more inclusive awareness and language
- Rebuilding identity and purpose after cancer
If you’re a man, a father, a brother, this episode could save a life.
