While the world lights up with pink ribbons, walks, and fundraisers, this month is also a reminder for women everywhere to pause, reflect, and take small steps towards their own well-being.
Here are a few easy but important ways to care for yourself this Pinktober.
Many hospitals and clinics offer discounted or free breast cancer screenings in October. Book your appointment this month and encourage a friend to join you! Taking this step together can make it less intimidating.
