Thank you, Alanna, for recounting your treatment and recovery from breast cancer. From running a half-marathon to starting your own head wrap business, your accomplishments and your tenacity inspire us all. Watch her episode here: https://t.co/eLW75QNdj7

When @alannners was getting cancer treatment, she was disappointed by the poor selection of head wraps. So she founded Mirasol (“sunflower” in Tagalog, paying homage to her Filipina heritage) to give women brighter head wrap options . Visit https://t.co/UnsWl2Epmn for more info.
