In 2014 Lissa Sears was diagnosed with stage 2 IDC Breast Cancer but that didn't stop her from achieving all the goals she set out for herself. Sears is a successful comedian, actor, vodcast co-host of Gays of our Lives, a published author in Urban Dictionary, but most importantly one of the founders of the Flat out Love organization. The Flat Out Love organization was formed to help support people who have gone flat after having breast surgery. They are a support system for one another and plan many trips and cool events throughout the year. Their biggest event that is happening this year is the Flat Out on Flat Top in Colorado. The event is taking place on top of the flattest mountain top in the world, Grand Mesa, to represent everyone who has gone flat. This event will include The Grace Project, International Flat Day Dinner, and a Flashion Show, which is a show that will showcase different designers, one of them being AnaOno. In addition, there will also be a silent disco, a dance walk with Melly, a Flat Out Self-Love day and Lissa will also be recording her one-person show as well!
