About this listen

Do you want to know one of the biggest secrets that cancer survivors have? It’s that life after cancer treatment ends can sometimes be even more tough than the disease itself. No one understands that like another cancer survivor. Gabby has been there – when the Get Well cards come down and you are alone with your fears, it can be scary, overwhelming– and lonely. Gabby knew she had to change her life and develop healthy habits to go from cancer survivor to Thriver. But working out what to do was confusing and exhausting. Gabby Mottershead, is now a 16 year Inflammatory Breast Cancer survivor-turned-confidence coach and my passion is helping people to rebuild their lives. Gabby says: I want to share everything that I have learned about survival, and how to rebuild your life once treatment ends. I expected to feel invincible once my cancer was gone, but it didn't. I felt depressed, anxious, and exhausted.

  • Your 5-Day Reset to Feel Like You Again
    May 13 2025

    If you’ve finished treatment and thought things would get easier - only to feel lost, exhausted, and unsure where to begin - I created this episode (and a powerful little course!) just for you.

    I’m sharing my own experience of trying to return to “normal” after a rare and aggressive cancer diagnosis, and why that transition felt harder than treatment itself.

    In this episode, I’ll walk you through what’s inside my new 5-day reset: from calming your nervous system, to gently boosting your energy, to managing the fear of recurrence, setting boundaries, and visualising the next chapter of your life. It’s a simple, soothing way to reconnect with yourself and rebuild the confidence cancer tried to shake.

    You’ve survived so much - now it’s time to start thriving.

    Here are the highlights:

    About Rosy Brookes:

    I help women rediscover their strength, confidence, and clarity after cancer. As a Nurse Specialist in palliative care, I had seen cancer’s impact at its worst, but when my son was diagnosed, I experienced it firsthand. His recovery left me feeling lost, overwhelmed, and disconnected from who I once was. Coaching helped me reclaim my confidence and find my purpose beyond cancer.

    Support for women after cancer is limited, and true healing goes beyond just the medical treatment. Through my Cancer Coaching Program, I guide women in overcoming fear, processing emotions, and help them to reclaim their purpose, and rebuild a life they love.
