SPREADING THE MESSAGE
Meet Pink Inspires and Peekaboo Pour Nous – Two sister brands which build genuine connections with compassion and humor.
Pink Inspires emerged back in 2006 at a time when digital technology, mobile devices, and social media was in its infancy. Inspired by family and friends touched by cancer, I had a deep desire to raise awareness, holding everyone accountable to find a cure. Listening and learning from strangers, I discovered cancer survivors and allies were searching for a safe space to share their stories, ask questions, and frankly… Feel heard.
Pink Inspires was born as a connector, creating a community which offered love, compassion, and strength using an online platform which promised anonymity.
Everyone has a story. I felt compelled to encourage others to share their experiences firsthand. Likewise, by opening a pathway for those looking to make a difference, I directed financial donations where 100% of the profits for Pink Inspires Flip-Flops went to a local charity. Each journey starts with a single step. My vision was for people from around the world to band together and spread the message, by wearing and gifting Pink Inspires Flip-Flops leaving behind two simple words, “Follow Me”.
Peekaboo Pour Nous emerged during a time of vulnerability. Back in 2010, I saw family and friends suffering from a diagnosis of cancer leaving them exposed, raw, struggling to regain their confidence. I saw an increasing need for support apparel and Mastectomy bras which were functional but, more important, allowed women to remember that despite cuts to their body they were cherished and beautiful human beings. During this same time, I had relocated to the United States and found myself in a corporate environment where assimilation meant survival, instead of acceptance based on unique differences and perspectives.
While meeting new friends and colleagues I was awe struck by how comfortable women were in letting down their guard, during their most vulnerable moments, in the presence of other females. These inclusive, special bonds were forged across multi-generational family members or by some type of community. Females tend to hold an intense and special place in their hearts for other females, with often a hint of humor which withstands the test of time. Thus, the birth of Peekaboo Pour Nous… A celebration of female friendships, the family we CHOOSE.
