"
I have to thank Dan Hafner for all of his help and support. There would not be a FFYL app if it wasn't for everything he's done. He set me up with the tools and platform I needed to learn and excel, and he was always there when I got stuck!

If you want to make an app for your business, or you're looking to incorporate forward-thinking technology into your brand, I'd highly recommend getting in touch with Dan. He is easy to work with and very accommodating! Dan understands industry trends and is committed to finding solutions to help you in your overall mission, vision and strategy."

Meet Jessica, Founder and Chief Advocate

Jessica Baladad is a 3-year cancer survivor who became a passionate advocate after a practitioner dismissed a malignant lump in her breast during a clinical exam.

Thankfully, Jessica learned how to do a self breast exam after having a benign tumor removed while she was in college, and it was a routine she maintained throughout adulthood. Two weeks after her clinical appointment, Jessica was doing a self exam in the shower when she found a lump, the same lump her practitioner failed to tell her about and documented as “normal.”

Jessica was later diagnosed with Stage 2B invasive ductal carcinoma. She underwent 16 rounds of chemotherapy, a double mastectomy, 24 rounds of radiation, a hysterectomy and a 10-hour flap reconstruction.

She started Feel For Your Life as a social media outreach project to encourage women to be their breast health advocates, and in 2021, Jessica became the first breast cancer survivor to create an app that provides resources for doing self breast exams and getting screened, allows you to track and monitor their changes, and lets users set reminders for doing self exams.
