Someone Like Me – Your Cancer Community Podcast
Welcome to Someone Like Me – Your Cancer Community Podcast
I’m your host, Vanessa Mooney, a breast cancer survivor who created this space after going through it all myself.
I share real cancer stories — honest conversations with people affected by cancer and the family members who’ve walked beside them.
These are raw, emotional, and uplifting stories about what cancer really feels like — the fear, the grief, the shock, the strength, and the unexpected moments that somehow get you through it.
I’m also launching Someone Like Me – Your Cancer Community App, a place for support, connection, and shared cancer stories for anyone affected by cancer.
Main Sponsor: Breast Cancer Ireland
This podcast is for anyone who has ever thought:
“No one gets what I’m going through.”
We do. And you’re not alone anymore.
💚 Let’s make cancer a little less lonely together.
