Alyssa Peden Journey Like June
What inspired you to launch your organization?
Throughout our daughter's journey with Neuroblastoma, we had tremendous support from our local community. After June passed away, we felt compelled to create something that would allow us to offer the same support to other local families going through similar experiences.
What is your passion?
I have a couple of passions, including being a mom, homesteading, and supporting families with children who have cancer.
How do you start your day?
I enjoy my homemade iced mocha in silence, hopefully before my children wake up.
Favorite local businesses?
Custom Cup, Grab-a-Java, The Dandy Lion, Milkmaid Mercantile, Yellow Bird, Farms of Illinois, Gypsy Soul, and anyone at the Old Capitol farmer's market
What do you deem as success in business?
For my organization, success is being able to make a difference for all families we encounter.
What is your number one piece of advice?
Follow your passions, and the universe will help everything fall into place.
