Shownotes
Mallory Casperson is the CEO and founder of Lacuna Loft. A former aerospace engineer, Mallory was thrust into the cancer world after being diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma.
During our interview we discussed:
- How her mother's cancer diagnosis, and subsequently her own diagnosis, caused her to leave the aerospace industry and start a non-profit.
- How Lacuna Loft began as Mallory's blog about her experience as a young adult cancer survivor.
- The three main challenges young adult cancer patients and survivors face; the lack of connections to people like them, the feeling of isolation and the need for validation.
- The range of online support resources available for young adult cancer patients and survivors.
