Learning to Love What's Changed:

A Free Workshop For Women After Mastectomy Surgery

Mastectomy recovery

Helping you move from self-judgment and disconnection to feeling more at home in yourself again with compassion

If you’re struggling with your body after mastectomy…

If you feel as if the mental and psychological recovery has been the missing piece

You want to get back to life but you're struggling

Looking in the mirror, putting on swimmers, others seeing your body is tough

If you're grieving, feel disconnected, ashamed, or like you don’t recognise yourself anymore…

Or perhaps you feel like you're left living in a body that no longer feels like yours

 

This is a very common experience for women after mastectomy surgery. There is nothing 'wrong' with you, your having a hard time with a major life adjustment.

 

This free workshop is here to help you understand exactly why this is tough, why this feels so hard and how to begin meeting yourself with kindness instead of criticism.

You've endured enough. You need to become your own ally, not your own enemy.

How to Be Kinder to Yourself

When Your Body Has Changed

If this is you…

 

You've had your mastectomy, but now you're left feeling no longer like yourself

You're uncomfortable in this body and you're not sure how you'll feel at peace again

You're avoiding intimacy and turning away from your reflection…

You feel discomfort, shame, or sadness when you see your body…

 

Thinking:

'I don’t feel like me anymore.'

'I’m not attractive.'

'I should just get over this.'

'I don't feel feminine.'

 

But you feel stuck.

 

And it makes sense that it feels this hard.

What Women Are Saying

'I feel more confident and comfortable with my body, less stressed about the need to cover up, and more comfortable getting changed with my husband. I can now understand and control the anxiety when looking at bras.'.

Joanna, QLD

'I reckon if I didn’t do this course, I would be struggling right now. Some days are still confronting, but I have the tools to use and I know it’s okay for this journey to be up and down.'

Kerrie, QLD

'Self-compassion was an extremely helpful tool in improving my confidence. The live calls with fellow mastectomy buddies were invaluable in realising I’m not alone in this.'
