We are The Boobie Queen Company, a nonprofit 501c3 business that helps women who have been affected by breast cancer celebrate themselves again. We call these women BOOBIE QUEENS and we celebrate them by donating Boobie Crowns and facilitating empowering retreats called BreastRest Retreat, a 4-day experience that supports young breast cancer survivors and thrivers to heal and celebrate themselves again, JUST AS THEY ARE.

Survivorship is tough! That's why we want to help women find the light after a dark time. BreastRest Retreat helps women connect with other survivors and thrivers, address the body image and mental health* challenges from breast cancer, and celebrate themselves as they are! When they return to their lives, they will leave with tools, coping strategies, hope, and a community so they can continue being the best mothers, daughters, friends, and partners they can be.

At BreastRest Retreats we celebrate the Boobie Queens with:

- mental health* workshops

- spa treatments

- empowering activities

How did we get started doing retreats?

Well, after founder Whitney O'Connor completed treatment for breast cancer twice in 2017 and 2019 at the age of 30 and 32, she quickly learned that treatment doesn't end when the bell rings. As the celebrations for the physical demands of chemo, surgery, and proton therapy came to a close, it was time for things to "go back to normal." Unfortunately, nothing felt "normal" to her. She had new fears, new scars, and new problems. And had no clue how to deal with it.

Whitney says:

"I felt like I was a BAD survivor. While I had amazing support from family and friends, I didn't know anyone around my age to talk about hot flashes, medically induced menopause, depression, anxiety, fear of recurrence, and infertility. It was as if I was on an island all by myself."

So, I went to the internet and began searching for online support. I started asking questions and talking to other women about my new experiences with managing anxiety, depression, unpleasant side effects from medications, medically indiced menopause, and trying to love my new body again. It turns out, other women were also suffering similarly and lacked the community and tools needed to cope with survivorship, just like me!

In an effort to help other young women like me get a community, I created a restorative and empowering retreat to address the challenges breast cancer survivors. I use my skills as a licensed therapist and experience as a 2x Breast Cancer Survivor to encourage these ladies to take the first step to mental recovery, embrace their new bodies, and feel empowered to move forward as Queens!"
