  • Summary

  • In this episodes Tova sits down with Gila Pfeffer. Gila Pfeffer is a sixteen year breast cancer previvor, survivor and prevention advocate. She is the author of the reluctantly inspirational memoir Nearly Departed: Adventures In Loss, Cancer, and Other Inconveniences. Her work includes the widely shared McSweeney’s piece “An Open Letter to Tiffany & Co. About Their Advertising Campaign for the Ring That Helps Women Remember They Survived Cancer.” Gila has also written for The New York Times, The New Yorker, Today.com, Oprah Daily and more. Her “Feel It on the First” campaign uses tongue-in-cheek photo and video reminders to prioritize breast health and has directly led to earlier diagnoses and treatment for some very grateful women. A mother of four grown children, she splits her time between New York City, London and Instagram.
