Hi, I’m Barbara.
Gen X Barbie. Mama. Wife. Survivor. Sassy Thriver.
Reconstructing Barbie emerged from a rocking chair, a “pea-sized” plot twist, and two decades of tests, treatments, tears, and triumphs. Here, you’ll find my journey through it all ~ motherhood, mastectomy, and healing. This chapter is deeply personal. It focuses on reclaiming my story. Embracing my scars. And giving a voice to the unfiltered, emotional, and sometimes ridiculous reality of it all.
Thanks for being here. Whether you’re newly diagnosed, mid-recovery, or just curious ~ you’re welcome in this dream house.
With love, lipstick, and a side of sass,
B.
