The Pink Event® 2014 Speaker Spotlight: Kellee Southern Challenges Women to Fully Embrace Their Life Journey

With her bubbly smile and calm voice, Kellee Southern is a woman who puts others at ease. But you wouldn’t tell from her initial modesty that you have a resilient fighter in your midst.

Afternoon Breather! Husband Takes Pictures in Tutu to Make Wife with Breast Cancer Laugh


After Linda was diagnosed with breast cancer, Bob began taking beautiful but totally ridiculous photographs of himself in a pink tutu.

Dealing with something as serious as breast cancer requires a laughter strategy. And according to a great post on BuzzFeed, that's what one husband did when he found out his wife had breast cancer.

Amazing Photos of A Wife's Battle & Loss to Breast Cancer


While perusing my favorite blogs, I saw this adorable couple photo and thought, "oh, another 'marriage rocks' post."
But it was so much more than that. Instead, this post detailed an amazing collection of photos that intimately captures a woman's heroic fight against and death from breast cancer.

Keep Pink Awareness Going After Tomorrow!



Tomorrow marks Halloween and the end of October as National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. There have been some interesting efforts to educate women about breast cancer and prevention methods, from a Tweeting bra to the "Pink Out" of The White House. 
Ultimately, a successful awareness month keeps women alert and engaged all year long. Women who conduct monthly breast exams, limit alcohol consumption, up their fruits and veggie intake, exercise regularly and keep their weight within "normal" limits are on a good path.

What About the Children?


In light of some recent events, there is an area that is not focused on. Recently, Adrian Peterson, a Vikings NFL player tragically lost his son to violence. The mother's boyfriend beat the two year old to death. Prior to this incident, the mother reported domestic violence over a period of time... years. 

It is common to find that when communities are being educated on significant issues recognized nationally in October that normally adults are targeted. It is important for adults to be targeted as breast cancer and domestic violence directly effects them. Who else does this directly effect?

Domestic Violence Attempt: Women Puts Survival Skills to the Test


  Ladies, tuning into Survival Alaska, a TV show on National Geographic, just might save your life. Recently a 25 year old woman was found alive in the Canadian woods after being reported missing for 12 days. Stephanie Beaverbones was savagely attacked by a man she recently met after being separated when the car she was in with her group of friends broke down. The group of friends split up leaving Stephanie behind with Kevin Gladue 36, a man she just met that day. Gladue allegedly sexually assaulted Stephanie leaving her with a broken jaw and concussion, but Stephanie used her quick wits to escape her attacker and ran into the nearby woods.

  After becoming disoriented, Stephanie survived in the Canadian wilderness for 12 days living off of berries and river water. She was later found by an oil worker and was reunited with her family. According to the NY Daily News, Gladue was charged with "aggravated assault, sexual assault and obstructing a peace officer in connection to the attack."

Shock: Angelina Jolie Underwent Double Mastectomy to Prevent Breast and Ovarian Cancer

If you didn't see this story, actress Angelina Jolie revealed today in an op-ed to The New York Times that she had a double mastectomy to prevent the risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer. 

Citing a "faulty" gene (BRCA1) that increases her risk of having the cancers, Jolie said her doctors informed her that she had an 87% risk for breast cancer and 50% risk for ovarian cancer. 

"Once I knew that this was my reality, I decided to be proactive and to minimize the risk as much as I could," Jolie writes in the Times. The Pink Event commends Jolie and other women who make a very personal decision to be proactive in preventing breast cancer. 

And don't forget that this week is National Women's Health Week. It's a time for you to get the check-ups necessary so that your total wellness is in tip-top shape.

Full Pink Moon Tonight!

Okay, we HAD to tell you about this story we saw in The Washington Post!  There will be a "glorious full moon" tonight at 8:05 p.m. EST that will be a pink moon. 

According to the Post, it earned the name "Pink Moon" not because of its appearance but from "herb moss pink," which is one of the earliest widespread flowers of spring. While it might not be totally pink like this picture, we're certain it will be awesome so be sure to look outside and enjoy the view!

The Pink Event® 2013 Celebrates Women History Month!

Tomorrow marks the first day of March and Women's History Month. This is a great time to learn about women (past and present) who have helped improve quality of life for all of us. In fact, Women's History Month is the reason The Pink Event holds its ultimate girls' day out in March (plus, we all need a fun break from winter blues!).

In honor of this awesome month, we wanted to highlight a few local-area female heroes:

Maimah Karmo, founder of The Pink Event's charity partner Tigerlily Foundation, is an incredible inspiration. She was diagnosed with breast cancer at 32, and has detailed to us the incredible journey she has been on from the disease. Based in Reston, Va., the nonprofit organization is dedicated to educating, advocating for, and providing hands-on services and support to young women (ages 15 to 40) who are affected by breast cancer.

One feature at The Pink Event 2013 (March 10; 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. in Columbia, Md.) that we think you’ll love is our exclusive book signing for Maimah’s new book, “Fearless: Awakening to My Life’s Purpose through Breast Cancer.”

New Report: More Young Ladies Have Advanced Breast Cancer


Okay ladies, we have to get serious for a minute. You might not have seen it but there was a new report out today that showed a rising rate of advanced breast cancer in young women (ages 25 to 39) in recent decades.

The report found that between 1976 and 2009, the rate of metastatic breast cancer (which spreads to distant organs like bones or the brain) in this age group had increased by roughly 2 percent each year, according to a story in Yahoo! News.

It's a small increase but it means about 1.4 more cases per 100,000 people over the time period with no signs of slowing down. In other words, young women are facing advanced breast cancer in numbers they hadn't in the past.

This is near and dear to The Pink Event® 2013. Our annual women-focused expo---held on March 10 (12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.) at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Columbia, Md.---promotes breast cancer and domestic violence awareness.

We won't deny it--we love to groove to the music in the midst of our shopping trips. Whether it's in the grocery aisle or fitting room, good music lift our spirits, evokes positive emotions, and, more importantly, hones our sale-finding instincts!

So we're psyched that The Carlton Smith Music Group will be the official live DJ at The Pink Event® 2013 on March 10 (12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.). Founder Mike Smith will play the top hits and keep the energy levels high during our ultimate girls' day out at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Columbia, Md.

Tigerlily Foundation Founder Maimah Karmo on Her New Book (Exclusive Signing at The Pink Event® 2013)!


The Pink Event® 2013 is proud to have Tigerlily Foundation as its charity partner to fulfill our expo’s mission of promoting breast cancer and domestic violence awareness.

Based in Reston, Va., the nonprofit organization is dedicated to educating, advocating for, and providing hands-on services and support to young women (ages 15 to 40) who are affected by breast cancer.

One feature at The Pink Event 2013 (March 10; 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. in Columbia, Md.) that we think you’ll love is our exclusive book signing for Tigerlily Founder Maimah Karmo’s new book, “Fearless: Awakening to My Life’s Purpose through Breast Cancer.”

This book tells Maimah’s story, starting with her life in her native country of Liberia, fleeing to America as a refugee, building her life and then watching it fall apart after being diagnosed with breast cancer. Initially angry, hurt, and scared, Maimah’s story shows how she grew to see her illness as a blessing. Through it all, she rediscovered her strength, self, and purpose.
We asked Maimah about her new book and what attendees can hear about it at the book signing.
