The Survivorship Starting Point
A Free Re-Entry Guide to Life After Breast Cancer
For anyone who finished treatment — and then wondered why life still felt so hard.
If you’ve ever thought, “I should be past this by now,” this is for you.
You finished treatment.
And then… you were expected to know how to live again.
This guide exists for the part no one prepared you for — the stretch of survivorship where your body, nervous system, and sense of self are still catching up.
Whether it’s been weeks, months, or years since treatment ended, this is a place to get reoriented — without pressure to fix, improve, or move on.

What no one tells you about the “after.”
Modern medicine is very good at treating breast cancer.
It’s far less equipped to support what comes after — when appointments taper off, support thins out, and you’re left to make sense of your body and life on your own.
Survivorship is often framed as a relief.
But for many people, it’s disorienting.
This guide exists because that experience is common — and rarely talked about.
Born from the intersection of personal and professional experience in breast cancer land.
What this Guide IS.
The Survivorship Starting Point is a free, thoughtfully paced self-care “starter kit” delivered by email, with optional video and audio companions.
It’s designed to help you:
understand what survivorship actually asks of you
reconnect with your body in a grounded, realistic way
feel less alone in the questions you may still be carrying
notice what your body actually needs to respond with care
What this Guide ISN’T.
This guide is not:
a checklist or a protocol
a program you have to “keep up with”
a sales funnel pretending to be support
a promise that everything will suddenly feel better
Think of it as orientation, not instruction.
It’s relevant. It’s practical. It’s designed to meet you where you are.
Who this Guide is for:
This guide is for you if:
You’ve finished treatment and feel unsure how to move forward
You’re months or years into survivorship and still struggling with the mental, emotional, and physical aftermath of breast cancer
You want self-care that’s safe, effective, practical, and relevant to your body and life in survivorship
You’re tired of saying you’re “fine” because you don’t have the words or skills to do more than that
This guide may not be the right fit if:
You’re newly diagnosed or currently in active treatment and focused on clinical support
You’re looking for a structured wellness plan or quick fix
You’re not ready to reflect on your own survivorship yet
(And that’s okay. Timing matters.)
The Details
Inside the guide, we explore:
What “new normal” actually looks like after breast cancer — and why it often feels harder than expected
What’s commonly missing from post-treatment self-care, and why that gap matters
What breast cancer self-care really is (and what it isn’t)
How to begin shaping a self-care approach that fits your body, life, and stage of survivorship
When you sign up, you’ll receive:
A welcome email to help you get oriented
A series of emails delivered over a couple of weeks
Optional video and audio companions if you prefer to watch or listen
Access to a private hub with all of the series content in one place
Each email will:
introduce a specific idea or lens
point you to a deeper piece of writing designed to help you add context, shift perspective, or create momentum
offer a small moment of reflection or noticing — nothing heavy, nothing graded
You can read slowly, binge everything, or pause and come back later.
There is no right pace. Only your pace.
Survivorship isn’t about getting back to who you were.
It’s about learning how to live in the body you have now — with more understanding, compassion, and choice.
This guide is simply a place to begin.
