Lessons in Self-Care (and Self-Love) with Cancer Fashionista

For patients with cancer, the holiday season can be particularly difficult: How is anyone supposed to prioritize self-care and recovery at a time when much of the world is going on about the joys of giving?

As a breast cancer survivor and a career fashion and beauty publicist, Melissa Berry is all too familiar with that challenge, along with the massive toll cancer can have on a person’s self-image. Enter Cancer Fashionista, a platform she’s built to help patients and survivors navigate cancer without sacrificing their self-confidence, self-worth, and self-empowerment.

In this episode of Your Stories, Melissa shares her story—including how she turned her cancer journey into a brand and a platform that reaches thousands of patients and survivors every day.
