You're going to be okay.
A digital companion for BRCA carriers navigating surveillance, surgery decisions, and next steps.
The Challenge
~17 million people in the U.S. carry a hereditary cancer gene, but only ~7,000 genetic counselors exist to support them, a workforce far too small for the scale of testing.
A huge gap post-genetic counselor visit
Most women are left without ongoing support or clear next steps
Inconsistent provider guidance
Different doctors often provide conflicting recommendations
Overwhelming anxiety and uncertainty
Questions about timing, family planning, and surveillance create stress
Difficulty finding high-quality specialists
Finding experienced providers who understand your needs is challenging

Stories from Our Community
"When I found out I was BRCA-positive, it felt like drinking from a fire hose. I understood everything in the moment — and then forgot it all. I wished there was one place to go that could help me keep track of what actually mattered."
— Erica, BRCA+
"I'm well-educated, and I still don't understand all of this. I felt like I needed a navigator — someone to tell me what I need to do, when, and not let things fall through the cracks."
— Taylor, BRCA+
