I Built a New Business From My Chemo Chair: Caroline’s Story

I Built a New Business From My Chemo Chair: Caroline’s Story

What happens when cancer makes you stop and question the life you were living before?

Caroline was diagnosed with cancer in June 2025 and from her chemo chair, she started building something new.

In this episode, we talk about her diagnosis, the mental side of cancer, mindset, and how going through something that completely turns your life upside down can also make you ask some pretty big questions about what you actually want next.

We talk about starting a business during treatment, designing a life on your own terms, letting go of the pressure to go “back to normal”, and navigating that messy middle when you know you want something different… but you haven’t quite figured out what that looks like yet.

And this definitely isn’t a “cancer happened and then I became super productive” story. You absolutely do not need to start a business from your chemo chair.

It’s about giving yourself permission to question the path you were on and maybe choosing a different one, one that gives you PURPOSE!

Because life after cancer doesn’t always have to be about getting your old life back.

Sometimes, you get to build a new one.
