Join us for a special edition of BRA Banter!

Join us for a special edition of BRA Banter in September, where we’ll go Beneath the BRA with our co-founders, Jenadi Talbot, Nancy Brown, and Namaste Anderson. During this exclusive session, they’ll share the personal stories behind their breast cancer diagnoses, what inspired them to create BRA, and their vision for the future of the organization. This is a unique opportunity to learn more about the heart and soul of BRA, hear directly from the women who started it all, and discover what makes this community so special.
