In today's episode, designer and three-time cancer survivor Paloma Soledad joins the podcast to share how her journey inspired the launch of Krysalis Kouture. 

ABOUT PALOMA SOLEDAD:

Paloma Soledad is a three-time cancer survivor, and the fashion designer and creative behind Krysalis Kourture. 

During her five-year journey with advanced cancer, Paloma experienced numerous surgeries and significant side effects from the drug treatments. Wearing her normal wardrobe became increasingly difficult, which inspired her to create a new line of adaptive clothing to help people dealing with medical issues regain a sense of normalcy.

Her goal is to camouflage physical changes stylishly, so you feel less like a patient and more like yourself.
