In this episode, Kiran publicly shares that she was diagnosed with breast cancer in mid-December 2025, had surgery on 16 December 2025, and has been undergoing chemotherapy since, including hair loss and wearing wigs. She describes initial denial, choosing not to delay treatment for an Oncotype DX test, and the severe physical toll of her first chemo—vomiting, dizziness, intense pain, and an ER visit—despite being very fit. Kiran reflects on avoiding screenings, urges regular annual checks, and discusses possible risk factors like hormones in food, long-term birth control pills, stress, processed foods, and product quality, while following doctors’ advice and cutting added sugar. She also shares how friends and family supported her, how some people disappeared, and her key takeaway for women: prioritize health, get screened, and learn to accept care without guilt.
