COMMUNITY: Overcoming Adversity | Lauren Murrell, Former Lawyer and Co-Founder of BySarah London,
Manage episode 398303894 series 3399920
Lauren Murrell, co-founder of BySarah London, shares openly her story of overcoming a rare form of leukaemia at the age of 23 (during her finals for law school as she was preparing to start her young adult life as a City lawyer). In this episode, she shares with us the idea of 'radical acceptance' - a mindset she adapted to deal with the serious adversity she faced, including a sudden diagnosis, rounds of chemotherapy, full body eradiation and the stem cell transfer from her sister, Sarah, which ended up saving her life. She also shares with us how she found the determination and sheer grit to fight this illness, which also contributed to her overcoming this serious illness and her pushing through her recovery.
During this time, her sister was not only supporting Lauren in her fight, offering moral and spiritual support, but only using her background in chemistry to create skincare serums to help Lauren's extremely sensitive skin due to the numerous rounds of treatment Lauren faced. Little did they know that this was the start of BySarah London, the now award-winning b-corp certificated skin care company they both founded in 2017.
We also discuss the life lessons she learned during this difficult time but also in her journey as an entrepreneur, including her mantra "Live life as if everything is rigged in your favour"!
I am so excited about sharing this episode - I know that Lauren's episode will definitely inspire many listeners to pursue their dreams!
