MY STORY

I didn’t plan to do this work.

But cancer has a way of changing things.

In 2005, I went through breast cancer treatment.

What I wasn’t prepared for… was how much it would affect everyday life.

Food tasted strange.
Sometimes it tasted like nothing at all.

Eating became hard.

And some side-effects like mouth ulcers made eating extra hard.


And something that used to feel normal… didn’t anymore.

THE REALISATION

Over time, I realised it wasn’t just me.

So many people were saying the same thing:

“Food just doesn’t taste right anymore.”

And there wasn’t much practical help out there.

So I started figuring it out.

Not in a clinical way.
In a real-life, what-actually-works kind of way.

How to bring flavour back when taste disappears.
How to make food enjoyable again.
How to make things feel just a little more normal.

That’s what led me to create Centre For Cancer Nutrition.

And everything that’s come since.

WHAT I DO NOW

These days, my work sits across a few different areas.

They might seem separate — but they’re all connected by one thing:

👉 helping people feel like themselves again.

Food & Flavour — Because when food tastes wrong, everything feels harder.

Intimacy & Connection — Because cancer doesn’t just affect the body — it affects relationships too.

Honest Conversations — Because sometimes the most helpful thing is knowing you’re not alone.

Simple Tools & Support — Because when everything feels overwhelming, small things make a big difference.
