Standard breast prosthetics often cause discomfort and emotional disconnection, leaving survivors feeling unseen—Simonne Cormier offers a natural, dignified alternative.After surviving breast cancer, Simonne Cormier expected healing to feel like progress. Instead, the prosthetic options she was given felt heavy, hot, and uncomfortable. Worse, they made her feel disconnected from her body and herself.So she did something few people do.She listened to her body—and built a better solution.Starting in her own sewing room, Simonne experimented with bamboo, cotton, and alpaca fibers, searching for materials that could breathe, flex, and feel natural against healing skin. What began as personal necessity became Au Naturel Solutions, a Canadian medical device manufacturer redefining breast prosthetics for survivors, individuals with natural asymmetry, and members of the 2SLGBTQI+ community.In this episode of the Knack4 Business Podcast, host Bernie Franzgrote and co‑host Wayne Pratt explore Simonne’s journey from survivor to founder—and the deeper meaning behind her mission.You’ll hear why dignity matters in medical design, how comfort affects confidence, and why one tester said her product didn’t just fit better—it gave her hug back.This conversation goes beyond products. It’s about healing, equity in healthcare, and what happens when innovation starts with lived experience.▶️ Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/difZ4McH4i4💬 Read more, comment, and join the discussion—your voice matters.
