Sally Obermeder - Cancer at 9 months pregnant, surrogacy, and building a health and wellness brand

It's hard to put words to the gravity of this episode - but we'll try. Sally Obermeder is an incredible woman, who is the definition of resilience. After finally having success via IVF when trying to conceive, Sally was at one of her final OB appointments before heading into the realm of birth, newborns and beyond; as an afterthought, she casually mentioned a lump in her breast that had formed during pregnancy - as she was literally walking out the door of her doctor's office. This sparked the beginning of a grueling cancer journey, with Sally undergoing 16 rounds of chemotherapy, two mastectomies and radiation - all during the tender postpartum period.

Her tale of survival is a beautiful one - but it doesn't end there. Sally and her husband Marcus decided they wanted to grow their family after she received a clean bill of health - but with only a few embryos left and a body that might not be able to sustain a pregnancy after such intensive cancer treatment - they turned to surrogacy. This story is not one without hardships - but it is truly the most uplifting and inspiring interview. Tori cried at least three times - so we warn you now, Peachies, grab the tissues and be ready to immerse yourself in the journey of our much adored Sal.
