I’m now one in eight - the kind of number you read on a poster at your gynecologists practice and never think applies to you. Hey, I’m Resi, 36 and originally from Germany. Together with my partner I decided to move from Berlin to Melbourne. Healthy, focused, always in control. The kind of person who reads every ingredient label, tracks her hormones, knows her bloodwork, avoids processed crap, and actually enjoys going to the gym. So yeah, getting a breast cancer diagnosis felt like an absolute cosmic joke.  But this blog isn’t just about breast cancer. It’s about the world we live in. A world that’s making it harder and harder to stay healthy. The following stats aren’t just numbers. They’re reminders of what’s really at stake. By 2050, over 35 million people are expected to be diagnosed with cancer every year. That’s a 77% increase from 2022. One in two of us will receive a diagnosis in our lifetime. That’s not just a number. It’s a wake-up call. I never thought I’d write a 'cancer blog'. But maybe we need new ways to talk about it. Ways that aren’t just clinical or pink or brave. Ways that make space for fear, for change, for truth. This is where I share what’s really happening in my life: How chemo feels. What helps me through the dark days.The thoughts that keep me up at night. And the small things that help me stay grounded - or at least come back to myself. If anything, this blog is about more than just cancer. It’s about the layers underneath. The old beliefs. The buried stuff that surfaces when life cracks open. And the healing that becomes possible when you let it. I'm glad you're here!
