Someone Like Me – Your Cancer Community Podcast
Welcome to Someone Like Me – Your Cancer Community Podcast
I’m your host, Vanessa, a breast cancer survivor who created this space after going through it all myself.
Each week I chat with people affected by cancer and the family members who have been through it right alongside them.
These are real, raw, honest conversations 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 mobile app. Keep an eye out, it’s coming soon.
This podcast is here 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.

E1 - Why I Created Someone Like Me: My Breast Cancer Journey
In this very first episode, I’m sharing my own story — the one that started it all.
From being diagnosed with breast cancer at 40 to going through treatment, dealing with the physical and emotional rollercoaster, and figuring out who I was afterwards… this is my honest, unfiltered journey.
I talk about the grief, the fear, the laughs (yes, there were a few), and the moment I realized I wanted to create Someone Like Me, Your Cancer Community App — a space I wish had existed when I needed it most.
Whether you’re going through cancer, have been through it, or love someone who has, this podcast is for you.
Thanks for being here 💗
