You’ve finished cancer treatment, but it doesn’t always feel like the end.
We know from experience that life after cancer can be unexpectedly hard.
The world expects you to bounce back, but inside you might feel lost, low, or unsure of what’s next.
You’re not alone and you don’t have to figure it out on your own.
About the Life after Cancer coaching programme
This 6-week coaching programme offers structured support for people navigating life after cancer.
No two groups are the same and the programme is shaped around the people in the room.
You’ll take part in a small, supportive group led by trained coaches who have had cancer themselves and understand the realities of life after treatment.
-
6 workshops over 6 weeks
-
6 coaching workbooks to help you capture your reflections and revisit them in the future
-
A small group of up to 12 other adults who’ve experienced cancer
-
Structured support led by trained coaches with lived experience of cancer
-
A short 15 minute call before the programme begins to help you feel settled and know what to expect
Workshop 1: Identity & Values
After a life-changing event, your beliefs, values, and priorities often shift. In this workshop, you’ll reassess your identity, clarify what’s important to you, and create a personal self-care plan. You’ll leave with clarity about your needs and actions to support your wellbeing.
Workshop 2: Present State & Visioning
Post-cancer, your pre-diagnosis goals may no longer align with who you are now. We’ll assess your current state, envision your future, and identify areas for change. You’ll gain clarity on your life’s direction and a vision for life after treatment.
Workshop 3: Actions & Accountability
Using your vision, we’ll develop a practical
action plan. You’ll break down goals into daily tasks
and be paired with an accountability buddy
to help keep you on track.
Workshop 4: Stories & Reframing
We explore the stories you tell yourself and
question whether they serve you.
You’ll rewrite your narrative, fostering hope
and new possibilities by shifting your mindset
Workshop 5: Awareness & Communication
We’ll reconnect with our bodies, map where we feel emotions, and discuss what we notice. You’ll leave with greater self-awareness and improved communication skills, both with yourself and others.
Workshop 6: Thoughts, Language & Gremlins
We’ll examine your internal dialogue and language, recognising how words impact your self-perception. You’ll learn to manage inner critics and practice being kinder to yourself.
“I really enjoyed the 6-week Life after Cancer programme. There’s so much to think about, manage and
adjust to in my new normal.
This course has helped me to build some foundations for moving forward and to address things that often go unsaid,
but that others who have had cancer understand.
It’s helped me see that I’m not alone, and that
this next stage feels manageable.”
Why this programme exists?
Steph, the founder of Life after Cancer, created this programme after her own experience with cancer.
Years after treatment, she was still navigating long-term effects - freezing her eggs, potential early menopause, and the emotional toll that doesn’t end when treatment does. She began running peer support groups for others who felt lost, isolated or overwhelmed - and something unexpected happened.
About three months in, the group began to shift. They didn’t want to keep talking about cancer - they wanted to start moving forward. They wanted to figure out who they were now, what mattered and what came next.
Together, they created this 6 week programme - designed to give people what often feels like a luxury: space to pause, reconnect with themselves, and begin rebuilding life after cancer in a way that reflects who they are now.
