From the publisher
Have you finished cancer treatment… but don’t feel like yourself anymore? On the outside, life looks like it’s moving forward. You may be back at work. Keeping things together. Smiling when people expect you to. But underneath… You feel exhausted. Disconnected from who you used to be. And unsure how to move forward with confidence. If that sounds like you — you are exactly who this podcast is for. Hosted by 18-year breast cancer survivor and confidence coach Gabrielle Mottershead, Confidence After Cancer is for professional women who are ready to rebuild their identity, regain their energy, and feel like themselves again after treatment ends. Each week, you’ll hear: ✨ Honest conversations about life after cancer ✨ Practical mindset shifts to rebuild confidence ✨ Support to help you stop people-pleasing and overworking ✨ Guidance to help you return to work feeling grounded, clear, and in control Because life after cancer isn’t about going back to who you were… It’s about becoming the woman you are now — with strength, clarity, and self-trust. If you’re ready to stop just surviving and start thriving, you’re in the right place. If you’d like support with this, you can book a Confidence Clarity Call with me via the link in the show notes.

Life after cancer is supposed to feel like a fresh start… right?Treatment is finished. You may be back at work. Everyone expects you to move on.But instead of feeling relieved or triumphant, many women find themselves thinking: “I don’t feel like myself anymore.” “Why does this feel harder than before?” “Why can’t I just go back to normal?”In this episode of Confidence After Cancer, Gabby explores the emotional confusion that often shows up after treatment ends, a phase that is rarely talked about, yet deeply felt.Gabby shares her own experience of expecting to “bounce back” after treatment, only to realise that everything had changed internally. What felt like failure was actually something else entirely: a transition between identities.This episode is especially for high-achieving, capable women who were used to being in control before cancer and now feel disconnected, uncertain, or emotionally unsettled.Because the truth is: You’re not supposed to go back to who you were. You are becoming someone new.What You’ll Learn from this Episode:Why life after cancer can feel more emotional than treatment itselfThe hidden “in-between” phase that no one prepares you forWhy high-performing women often struggle with identity shiftsThe difference between the “old you” and the “new you”Why trying to go back to normal creates more confusionHow cancer changes your priorities, tolerance, and identityThe powerful reframe: from “Why do I feel lost?” to “Who am I becoming?”Why this phase is not failure, it’s transformationHow to begin intentionally rebuilding your next chapterResources & Links:Book a free clarity call with Gabby: Schedule hereConnect with Gabby on Instagram: @gabby.mottersheadVisit the website: confidenceaftercancer.co.uk Watch on YouTube: Subscribe hereJoin Gabby’s weekly newsletter for tips on life after treatment: Sign up here
