Tune in for Episode#5 of Season 3, when Pon Angara, VisionReady's Creative Director and Disrupt Your Day Host, chats with Pattie Sheehan, Certified Mastectomy Fitter and Owner of Second Act Cancer Recovery Boutique in Chicago.Pattie graduated college in 1975 with a bachelor's degree in journalism and started what would become her dream career in Advertising. The challenges were many as advertising account management was a "man's job" back then but Pattie persevered, eventually becoming vice president of client services for a mid-sized ad agency for more than a decade. But, at age 53, that agency closed and Pattie faced the agism that many older professionals encounter.“In February 2005 my mother Tess, age 80, was diagnosed with stage four ovarian cancer," recalls Pattie. "I watched her struggle to maintain her dignity, never losing her sense of self or her sense of humor, and all the while reaching out to others as they ‘joined the club'. When she died in June 2007 I realized what I needed to do for my second act."In 2008 she made a colossal career shift opening Second Act Cancer Recovery Boutique and in 2020 was named Certified Mastectomy Fitter of the Year by Breast Cancer Wellness Magazine. Today, at age 70, she continues to operate Second Act, Chicago's only ABCOP accredited mastectomy boutique, serving breast cancer patients and survivors from throughout the Chicagoland area."Second Act embraces the belief that life is an ongoing creative project and that everyone has the power to envision the life we desire, even after unexpected, sometimes devastating, circumstances," says Pattie. "In this spirit Second Act helps individuals facing physical changes retain their self-esteem, regain their self-image and thrive."Watch the full interview in which Pattie shares how she chose to become a pioneer in her industry, persevered through the uphill climb, and built a reputation in Chicagoland as the go-to source for breast cancer patients and survivors seeking physical transformation for their emotional well-being.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
