Diane Meland - Owner & President, Certified Fitter
In 1997, Diane was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent a bilateral mastectomy. She became "obsessed" with telling women about the importance of self-breast exams and getting mammograms.
She began doing public speaking and spreading the word about breast cancer awareness.
In 2005, she was blessed to begin working for Dr. Fahima Qalbani, the doctor who discovered her breast cancer.
As a Patient Coordinator, she was able to help women through their journey, which was a very rewarding opportunity. In 2012, she began working for Kim Weiland's Beyond Pink.
In 2015, she became the new and proud owner of Beyond Pink, where her passion of helping fellow survivors and promoting breast cancer awareness continues.
In addition to owning and operating Beyond Pink, Diane works for Siouxland Community Health Center as a Certified Application Counselor.
