When Lisa and Deidra were first introduced to each other, the topic quickly became about a desire to help women and children. Both women had a healthcare background, both married to physicians, and both women wanting to make a real difference in the lives of others. In 2012, My Happy Place was created, a non-profit 501(c)3, offering bedroom makeovers to sick children. In 2016, it was time to add the other half of the equation into the scheme of things and My Happy Haven was born. My Happy Haven offers bedroom makeovers to women with cancer. Cancer affects us all. We all know of a friend or close family member living with a cancer diagnosis. With a cancer diagnosis comes fear and the uncertainty of what the future will bring. Lisa, having been diagnosed with breast cancer herself in 2014, also lost both of her parents to cancer. Believing that there's good that comes from every bad outcome, Lisa used her cancer experience as a catalyst to create My Happy Haven and help other women on a cancer journey.
