Rejection, adversity, and overcoming hardship - with Cheryl LaMee & The Julie Fund

If you're wondering how to deal with rejection and stay positive in the face of adversity - this episode is for you. 

I brought on the Executive Director of the Julie Fund for Women's Cancer, Cheryl LaMee. 

The mission of The Julie Fund for Women’s Cancers is to fight women’s cancers in three spaces:

• Education/Advocacy
• Research
• Patient Support

The Julie Fund was founded in 2004 and has grown to become the single largest contributor to ovarian cancer research at Mass General Hospital.  In the past 17 years, The Julie Fund has donated over $4M in the fight against women’s cancers.

In 2003 – Forty-year-old Julie McAvinn, mother of three, was undergoing treatment for ovarian cancer and envisioned an organization that focused on easing the struggle.

A year later, Julie lost her battle.  Julie’s husband, Peter, together with a group of dedicated friends, started The Julie Fund.   A partnership was established with Massachusetts General Hospital to give social services to patients in need – transportation, childcare, health care, mortgage payments, etc.

Today's episode will cover the history of the Julie Fund, the adversity Cheryl faces when applying for help with the Julie Fund, plus some inspiring stories to remind us to keep going when times get hard. 

WE COULD USE YOUR HELP :) 

Our goal is to raise $10,000 for the Julie Fund and Women's Cancer by May 1st, 2023.
