In this new episode of ‘Narratives of Purpose’, host Claire Murigande explores the intersection of healthcare advocacy and personal storytelling with Dr. Nia Imani Bailey, President of the Byrd Cancer Education and Advocacy Foundation, who passionately discusses her journey as a radiation therapist and the drive behind her documentary, 'A Letter to My Sisters.'
Dr. Nia shares her experiences and insights on the rising incidence of breast cancer diagnoses among younger women, challenging the traditional age-based screening guidelines. She highlights the stories of women who faced significant barriers in receiving timely diagnoses and treatment featured in her documentary film.
Dr. Nia also calls for systemic changes that prioritise patient education, community resources, and holistic care. She equally emphasises the need for greater self-advocacy as well as open communication between patients and providers.
