Nobody Told Me... I’d Carry On Working After Being Diagnosed With Incurable Cancer

In today’s episode we’re joined by Nicola Mendelsohn, CBE. Nicola is Facebook’s Vice President for Europe, the middle east and Africa, where she’s worked for the last seven years, running initiatives to empower women both inside and outside the company and winning awards and accolades across the globe for her influence and power in an incredibly competitive and fast-paced industry. Her home life is just as busy - Nicola is a mother to four children and is married to the British lobbyist and Labour political organiser Johnathan Mendelsohn.

Nicola has also been living with an incurable blood cancer called Follicular Lymphoma for the past four years. In that time, she has undergone two years of gruelling immunotherapy and chemotherapy, while dealing with the emotional and mental turmoil of living with a poorly understood cancer. Through it all, Nicola has kept on working.

This is Nicola’s story, in her own words.
