Synopsis

Amanda Katherine Loy is not your typical twenty something year old. At the young age of 27, she had a preventative double mastectomy -- or as she likes to say, she chopped off her tits. She has the BRCA 1 gene mutation, which raises her risk of developing breast cancer over her lifetime to up to 85%.When she was going through the process of navigating surgery/genetic counseling etc, she felt so alone. There are no resources for young women navigating a genetic predisposition like this (or, for that matter, navigating breast cancer). So she made it her mission to change that. And thus, I Chopped Off My Tits was born.What started as her sharing the nitty gritty details of her story turned into a movement and, really, a book that not just women with her story can relate to, but anyone who has ever faced a traumatic event in their lifetime. It’s funny, it’s candid AF, and it's jam packed full of actionable tools to face your fears head on so you can live your f*ck yes life.
