Nobody should have to figure this out alone.

Babette is made with the women who read it. Here’s how to be part of it, starting today.

Nobody Told Me

What did nobody tell you?

The numb armpit. The day treatment ended and you felt worse instead of better. That sex might hurt. Tell us the thing you weren’t ready for.

Our editors read every one. Some become stories on Babette, always with your permission. We never use your name unless you tell us we can.

Your note opens in your email app, addressed to connect@withbabette.com, so only our editors see it. Babette isn’t a medical provider. If something worries you about your health, call your care team.

Women-Owned Wednesday

Which women are building things you should know about?

Every Wednesday we go live on Instagram with a woman founder. We ask what she built and why she built it. Her company doesn’t have to be about breast cancer. It just has to be worth knowing about.

12 pmEastern
7 pmEastern

Live on Instagram every Wednesday, at noon and again at 7 pm.

Founders: tell us about your company and we’ll be in touch.

The Babette Supper Club

Will you come to dinner?

We’re planning the first Babette Supper Club: a long table and a room full of women who get it. Nobody has to explain anything.

Tell us where you live, and we’ll save you a seat when there’s a dinner near you.

We’ll only use your email to tell you about Supper Club dinners.

House rules

How do we keep this space safe?

Everything here runs on trust. These are our promises to you, and what we ask of each other.

  1. Your story is yours.We never publish your name or details without your permission, and you can ask us to take something down at any time.
  2. Experience is not medical advice.What worked for one woman may not be right for you. Take medical questions to your care team.
  3. We never sell your information.Not your email, and not your story.
  4. Be kind.Everyone here is at a different point. Nobody owes anyone a brave face.
