Introducing a new level of support for life after cancer.
Life after cancer treatment may not be a return to how things were before. Survivorship can bring relief, but also uncertainty and the challenge of finding a new normal.
New survivorship support, now part of Cancer Coach
To better support people beyond active treatment, we have expanded Cancer Coach with survivorship-focused modules and coaching support. Move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and support.
Purpose & Identity
Reflecting on who you are now and what matters most after a cancer diagnosis.
Emotional adjustment
Tools for managing fear of recurrence, scanxiety, and the emotional shifts that follow treatment.
Your new normal
Rebuilding routines, relationships, and daily life with realistic expectations and confidence.
Returning to work & routine
Practical guidance for navigating work, energy management, and re-entering everyday life.
Why support still matters after treatment
Cancer can continue to affect daily life long after treatment ends. Survivors may be expected to feel better or back to normal, but many are still managing real and ongoing challenges.
Physical recovery
Lingering fatigue, reduced stamina, pain, sleep disruption and changes in physical functioning can continue well into survivorship.
Emotional well-
being
Fear of recurrence, uncertainty about the future, anxiety before scans and changes in mood can shape everyday life after treatment.
Identity &
confidence
Many survivors are adjusting to a changed sense of self, a changed body, or a changed relationship to health and safety.
Work & routine
Returning to work, rebuilding habits and re-entering normal life can feel harder than expected.
Relationships &
support
Family, friends and colleagues may assume the hardest part is over, even when the survivor still feels like they are carrying a great deal.
The need for support is real
Survivorship is associated with ongoing physical, mental and practical challenges that can continue well beyond treatment. This is why support into survivorship matters, not just during cancer, but after treatment too.
