EPISODE 6: LADY GAGA AND MAMMOGRAMS

PLEASE SUBSCRIBE, LISTEN AND SHARE!

SHOW NOTES:

This episode begins with all things related to Lady Gaga.  Colleen discusses her amazing trip to Las Vegas where she saw Lady Gaga’s Enigma Tour at the MGM Park Theatre. She describes the Haus of Gaga where many of Lady Gaga’s famous costumes are on display as well as her outrageous shoes and even her Golden Globe.  Check out our Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hotflashescooltopics for pictures from the Haus of Gaga.  Colleen also describes the incredible talent that is Lady Gaga and her dramatic and enthralling performance.  A must see!  Another highly recommended show in Las Vegas is The Beatles Love Tour, the music and the characters are combined for a beautiful show.

We also discuss some changes coming to the podcast.  We are adding some great guests to talk many new topics like travel, menopause and divorce.  We have a new YouTube channel where Bridgett courageously videos her Botox and skin care routines.  We are now adding Blogs (written by Colleen) on the website and you can check those out as well.  Our website is hotflashescooltopics.com where you can find the links to these additions.  

Next, we focus on Breast Cancer Awareness Month and the fear many women have of getting a mammogram.  Most women fear the possible discomfort, the unknown aspects of the procedure, the very small amount of radiation or what the doctors may find.  We discuss our own personal experiences with these fears and the need for further procedures when indicated.  The bottom line is that none of these fears compare to the possibility of finding breast cancer at an early treatable stage.  No discomfort, fear or anxiety should keep you from going for your yearly exam.  90% of women walk out with a clear scan. Talk to your doctor, bring a friend or schedule first thing in the morning: whatever it takes to get you to the appointment. Once it is done, treat yourself to something because you deserve it. Get your boobs checked!
