About Mom life after cancer, Breast cancer, Prognosis, Exhaustion, Loneliness, Terminal disease
Are you a mum navigating breast cancer, triple negative breast cancer, or cancer treatment while quietly carrying fear, exhaustion, loneliness, and uncertainty about the future?
This podcast is a safe space for honest conversations about breast cancer diagnosis, prognosis, motherhood, emotional healing, and faith during hard seasons.
Hey, I’m Prisca — a mum, a woman of faith and triple negative breast cancer survivor diagnosed at 37 with two young children. Like so many mums, my first prayer was:
💛 “God, please let me live to see my children grow up.”
Here, you’ll find emotional support, practical guidance, and gentle encouragement to help you:
- Cope with breast cancer exhaustion, fear, and loneliness
- Support your children emotionally during cancer treatment
- Navigate prognosis anxiety and waiting for results
- Receive help without guilt
- Hold onto faith and hope through the hardest days
Think of this podcast as your big sister sitting beside you through breast cancer — reminding you that you do not have to carry this alone.
So come take your seat… and bring your cold cup of tea.
You are exactly where you’re meant to be. 💛

23. Can We Talk About the Financial Cost of Cancer? What Happens When the Bills Keep Coming? Tips to Navigate This Season
Cancer doesn’t just affect your body. Breast cancer can also affect your finances, your work and your family life.
In this episode of Mom Life and Cancer, I’m talking about the financial burden that can come with cancer and how it can add another layer of stress when you’re already dealing with exhaustion, loneliness and uncertainty about your future.
I also share how income protection helped me, Family and friends helped me and how we received a free family holiday through Camp Quality.
Because sometimes financial support isn’t just about paying a bill — it gives a mum space to heal.
Come and take your seat. 🤍
I'd love to continue the conversation with you.

22. Have We Become Numb to Breast Cancer Awareness? Are You Really Doing Enough?
Breast Cancer Awareness — Are We Really Doing Enough?
Every October, the pink ribbons come out. But what does breast cancer awareness actually mean beyond wearing pink?
In this episode of Mom Life and Cancer, I’m asking whether awareness is leading to action — from knowing your risk and understanding screening, to recognising the reality of breast cancer, prognosis, exhaustion, loneliness and the fear of a terminal disease.
I also share my own story of being diagnosed with Stage 3 Triple Negative Breast Cancer at 37, and why I believe awareness needs to be more than recognition.
Because behind every statistic is a woman, a family, and a story.
I'd love to continue the conversation with you.

21. Are You Feeling Lonely in Your Fight Against Breast Cancer? 4 Tips to Keep You Going
Lonely in Your Fight Against Breast Cancer? 4 Lessons From the Wilderness
Breast cancer treatment can feel like a wilderness. You may be exhausted, lonely, worried about your prognosis and wondering how you're going to keep going—especially when you're trying to keep showing up as Mum.
In this episode of Mom Life and Cancer, I share four lessons from the story of the Israelites that helped me think differently about the wilderness of breast cancer:
🤍 Trusting God for provision when you feel like you're running on empty.🤍 Letting go of the past when you desperately want your old life back.🤍 Looking beyond the giant when cancer feels bigger than you.🤍 Remembering who you are when treatment has changed what you can do.
This isn't about pretending cancer isn't hard. It's about finding hope, perspective and quiet faith in the middle of it—one step at a time.
If you're feeling lonely, exhausted or afraid of what your prognosis might mean, I hope this conversation reminds you that your diagnosis is not your identity, and this wilderness is not the whole story.
I'd love to continue the conversation with you.
