YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWhen Lauren found a lump in her breast, she was flung into a turbulent whirl of surgery and its aftermath.
Compass follows the 37-year-old’s physical and emotional journey as she decides to remove her remaining breast and defy cultural expectations around reconstruction.

This pathway reimagines femaleness, challenges conventional beauty standards and gives agency to women who are facing one of the biggest decisions of their lives.
