Cancer Survivors
They beat cancer — then went back to building.
10 profiles, published in one list. Every profile is fact-checked against its sources, and every source opens inside the magazine.
Ten profiles of people who heard the worst diagnosis there is — and then, having beaten it, went back to building.
The list features Ben Freeberg, Glenn Stearns, Jo Malone and Kathy Fettke. Their businesses differ; their interruptions were the same. Each profile covers both halves: what was built before the diagnosis, and what was built after it.
This is not a list about illness. It is a list about return — about founders and owners for whom recovery was not the end of the story but the middle of it.
