The Nipple Sisters and the C Word Oct 13, 2023

Show notes

It's Breast Cancer Awareness month and Jann invited some friends of a friend to talk about power and confidence during what is a terrible experience for breast cancer patients. Kacie Rainey & Carmelina Baccari call themselves THE NIPPLE SISTERS ™ as they are united through their shared passion and vision to improve the lives of cancer warriors. With well-trained eyes and over 15 years of combined experience as internationally certified paramedical micro-pigmentation specialists, they have helped hundreds of women restore their body confidence through cancer-related micropigmentation techniques with a focus on areola restoration. On this episode, they tell Jann and Sarah about launching their new company Ckinns Official to help support women while they are 'blank' during the time between diagnosis and completion.
