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.

E13: Cancer Hit Our Family Hard: A Chat with My Big Brother Paddy
In this episode of Someone Like Me, I sit down with my big brother Paddy for a chat that means a lot to both of us. We talk about how cancer hit our family, our mum, our sister, and myself, and how it left its mark on all of us in different ways.
It’s raw, honest, and full of the kind of stuff people don’t always say out loud. We talk memories, what it’s like being on the sidelines watching someone you love go through it, and how you just keep going when your family is hit again and again.
This episode is about how cancer ripples through the whole family, and about love, loss, and showing up for each other.
