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.

Hi, I’m Amy Hartl, BRCA1+, LMT, CMLDT

I’ve made self-care a way of life since my breast cancer diagnosis. I’ve also realized it’s not easy.

Time passes, recovery happens.

But true healing requires time, attention, patience, and intention.

After spending over a dozen years in integrative oncology care and bodywork, I understand that self-care is a decision. You don’t want to be passive and simply recover.

You want to HEAL.

I align myself with other women like me who, though challenged by all that breast cancer brings, have decided that we have a say in how we move through it, live with it, and experience life beyond it (regardless of disease status).

If this sounds like you then I would love the chance to help you kickstart your self-care journey.
