In this powerful episode, Jen Delvaux sits down with Dana Donofree, a breast cancer survivor and the visionary founder of AnaOno—a lingerie brand created specifically for women who've undergone breast surgery. Diagnosed at just 27 years old, Dana turned her pain into purpose by designing bras that fit, support, and celebrate post-surgery bodies.
Together, they dive into:
Dana's personal breast cancer journey and the challenges of treatment at a young age
The emotional toll of finding lingerie that didn't fit her new body—and how that frustration became the spark for AnaOno
The powerful message behind Cancer Culture's Fashion Show and how it's changing lives
The ongoing need for funding and action—specifically for metastatic breast cancer research
Why healing is not linear, and how self-love and empowerment are part of the recovery journey
Whether you've been through cancer or love someone who has, this episode is a must-listen reminder that beauty isn't lost after breast cancer—it's redefined.
