S2, Episode 11: The Legendary Momma Lynnie with Amy Epstein
Whitney and Courtney welcome Amy Cohen Epstein, the inspiring president and executive director of the Lynne Cohen Foundation and host of the women’s wellness podcast, The SEAM.
Amy, who founded the organization with her siblings, shares her journey from losing her mom, Lynne, at the age of 21 to creating a nonprofit organization in her honor. The foundation is dedicated to combating ovarian and breast cancer through preventative care, education, and community, and is a true testament to Lynne's enduring spirit and love for others.
Amy reminisces about the vibrant and beloved "Momma Lynnie" who was a college cheerleader, a doting mother of four and the consummate hostess with the mostess, despite the fact that cooking was not her forte. Amy claims Lynne was a bit of a local celebrity in her own community simply because everyone who knew her loved her dearly!
Inspired by her incredible mother, Amy Cohen Epstein’s advocacy for women's health issues has created a path for female empowerment in a world where women often don’t know how to take charge of their own health. She highlights the importance of preventative care, sharing anecdotes about the foundation's work and the thousands of women they've helped over the years. Her dedication to educating and supporting women through the Lynne Cohen Foundation and "The Seam" podcast is truly commendable. This episode of "Hey, Sis, Eat This" is a beautiful tribute to Momma Lynnie and a celebration of the enduring impact one woman can have not just on her family and community but whose legacy lives on through the foundation.
