Confidence and life coaching for women after cancer 

You're allowed to want more.

You can be grateful to be alive and still want to feel confident, enjoy your life and have something exciting to look forward to.

Everyone says you look well. You wish you felt more like yourself.

You’re getting on with things. Perhaps you’re back at work, looking after your family or reassuring everyone that you’re doing fine.

But underneath, life feels different.

You might be questioning things you once took for granted. Finding decisions harder. Saying yes when you want to say no. Wondering whether the confidence you used to have will ever return.

Or perhaps you’re beginning to feel a little spark of possibility—and you’d love some support to follow it.

You don’t need to have it all worked out. We can start with where you are.

Three things I believe about life after cancer

Finishing treatment isn’t the same as feeling ready.

The appointments may have slowed down while you’re still making sense of everything. You deserve support during this part, too.

You deserve space to be honest.

You don’t have to put on a brave face here. You can be worried, angry, hopeful, grateful—or several things in the same conversation.

You’re allowed to want more.

Confidence. Connection. Meaningful work. Fun. A new adventure.

Being glad you’re here doesn’t cancel out everything else you want from your life.

Hi, I’m Gabby.

I’m Gabrielle Mottershead—a confidence coach, author and inflammatory breast cancer survivor, 18 years on from my diagnosis.

When treatment ended, I expected relief. Instead, I felt anxious, uncertain and disconnected from the woman I’d been.

I had built a demanding career in senior finance roles. I was used to being capable, responsible and the person who kept everything moving. Admitting that I needed support didn’t come easily.

My experience led me into coaching and a different way of thinking about what I wanted from life.

Today, I bring my coaching training, professional experience and lived understanding to my work with women after cancer.

Your experience will be different from mine. I’ll take time to understand yours—and help you explore what comes next for you.
