Episode 15:

Art, Advocacy & Early Detection: Shaney Jo Darden on 25 Years of Keep A Breast

In this episode of Roar, host Danielle Davies is joined by Shaney Jo Darden, founder and Global Creative Officer of the Keep A Breast Foundation—an organization that’s been redefining breast health education through art, activism, and access for 25 years.

​

What began as a single breast casting art project has grown into a global movement, reaching young people and underserved communities around the world. Shaney Jo shares the origin story behind Keep A Breast, how creative expression became a tool for education, and what it means to center joy, art, and community in a space often defined by fear.

​

We talk about:

·       The power of casting art to raise awareness and reclaim the body

·       How to make breast health education inclusive and actually engaging

·       The emotional labor of advocacy—and how Shaney protects her own peace

·       Why men, trans people, and marginalized communities must be part of the breast cancer conversation

·       Building something that lasts—and learning to lead with heart

 

Plus, Shaney shares how you can join the mission, use the Keep A Breast app for monthly self-check reminders, and show up as an ally in the fight for accessible breast health.
