Who We Are
Remission in the workplace is an especially personal topic to us, since we both have had close family members receive a cancer diagnosis. Seeing them navigate treatment, remission and returning to work was a difficult process that was marred with uncertainty.

A few days before I turned 16, my mother received a breast cancer diagnosis. A few days after I turned 17, she was cleared and entered remission. Despite this good news, the issues had not disappeared, they'd merely taken a different shape. Long-term side effects, less medical support and increased social and professional expectations made the year after particularly difficult for her and my family.

When I was 12, my aunty was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and it was the same story. Support quickly dropped off while the effects were longlasting.
Our Mission
These experiences have driven our passion to address this underrepresented Area, leading to the creation of MBC Plans.
