Real Housewives of Sydney star Sally Obermeder has revealed she made a pact with her sister to start a wellness business if she survived cancer.
The entrepreneur, 50, faced her darkest hour when she was diagnosed with breast cancer while pregnant, which saw her undergo chemotherapy.
Speaking to The Daily Telegraph on Wednesday, Sally said she wanted to create a business to make people ‘feel amazing’ which later turned into wellness brand, SWIISH.
‘I remember calling my sister [Maha Corbett] when I was six months into treatment,’ Sally began, of the brand’s origins.
‘I wasn’t finished and I told her, “If I survive, let’s start a business to help people feel amazing”. It’s now a decade on.’

Sally reflected on her battle saying it was going through the treatment of cancer is personal and illness is something that must be fought alone.
‘I think it’s because of what I went through with cancer. When you are in your battle, you are on your own,’ she said.
‘You have to front up to chemotherapy by yourself, and you have to wake up from surgery on your own. That experience has helped me to find my own strength within me.’
Sally was forced to fight an aggressive stage-three breast cancer, which she has since overcome, when she came up with the idea of a powerful green supplement.

‘I thought, ”what can I do here to feel like I am giving back?” I know what it’s like to be sick and what it feels like to be well.’
Sally said working with her sister is enjoyable as they have a ‘close bond’ and are ‘sounding boards for one another’.
‘We are polar opposites and that’s beneficial for us and the business, we come at everything from a different perspective,’ she said.
‘It’s going to be a big year [for us].’
