About Lillian
Lillian Hamilton, the tenacious force behind Natura3, holds an unshakable bond with the journey of breast cancer survivors. Having lost both her parents to cancer and witnessing her sister's courageous battle with an aggressive form of breast cancer, Lillian's life has been forever altered. For one year, Lillian’s sister, fought bravely but succumbed to the disease, leaving behind two young children. The impact of these experiences deepened as Lillian herself discovered a lump in her own breast. The diagnosis came four years to the day her sister was initially diagnosed, marking an emotional parallel between their journeys. As a stage 3 breast cancer survivor, Lillian intimately understands the physical and emotional challenges faced by those in the midst of her own treatment, enduring five months of chemotherapy and 30 rounds of radiation, Lillian found herself stuffing tube socks into her bra for comfort. The warm radiation-treated breasts combined with the underwire of her bra caused unnecessary discomfort during an already trying time. It was in that moment she knew there had to be a better way, one that didn't involve invasive surgeries or compromise comfort.
Fueled by personal experiences and a passion to empower fellow survivors, Lillian embarked on a mission to revolutionize the journey with innovative shape-wear. Together with her fiancé, Michael, she developed a prototype that would provide unparalleled comfort, confidence, and healing. Recognizing the significance of a like-minded partner, Lillian approached Shaun Francis, a true warrior who had triumphed in his own battle with brain trauma, emerging even stronger. Their shared vision gave birth to Natura3—a beacon of hope for breast cancer survivors, crafted with love and dedication to empowering every step of the way.
Today, Natura3 stands as a testament to Lillian's unwavering commitment to making a positive impact in the lives of others. Through innovative shape-wear and a warm-hearted approach, Natura3 ensures that breast cancer survivors can find comfort, regain confidence, and experience the healing they deserve.
