In February 2026, our beloved Nat was diagnosed with Invasive Ductal Carcinoma — breast cancer.

The news arrived without warning and has since turned the life of one of the most independent, creative, and quietly powerful women we know completely on its head.

Nat is a giver, a builder, and a steady, caring presence who has spent her life pouring into the people and community around her. She is the kind of person who shows up for everyone without hesitation, which makes finding herself on the receiving end of care deeply uncomfortable for her. But that is exactly why the two of us wanted to create this page, because Nat would never ask for this herself.

Since her diagnosis, Nat has undergone a double mastectomy and is now waiting to meet with her oncologist to understand what the road ahead looks like. She has had to step back from work during this time and is navigating the very real financial strain that comes with serious illness, all while facing her treatment with the grace and strength that those who love her have always known her to possess.

At the heart of all of this is Nat's beautiful family. She is a devoted mother to two wonderful boys and a loving partner to Tay, and getting her well again is everything. Supporting Nat through this means supporting all of them, and giving her family the chance to have her back, healthy and whole.

We have created this page so that the community Nat has spent her life tending can tend to her in return. Every contribution will go directly toward medical expenses, everyday bills during this period of not working, and the complementary therapies that support her body and spirit through treatment.

Whatever way you choose to show up for Nat, whether through a donation or simply by sending her your love and well wishes, it means the world to us and to her.

With so much love,

Charlotte (sis in law) & Charlotte (the doula)
