Surviving breast cancer is more than just completing treatment-it's about navigating the profound emotional, mental, and physical challenges the disease imposes. Few understand this complex journey better than Isabel Galiano, a 51-year-old Luxembourg native and two-time breast cancer survivor. She was diagnosed at 32 and faced a recurrence two years later. She had also been a caregiver to her late mother who had colon cancer.
Her intimate experience with the disease deepened her commitment to empowering women to take control of their recovery.
Now a cancer coach based in Singapore, Galiano's personal battle with cancer has shaped her holistic approach to healing, making her a pillar of support for those on similar paths. As a coach, she offers guidance and practical tools to help survivors not only cope but thrive after a diagnosis. "It's not just about getting through treatment," she explains, "it's about reclaiming your life afterwards."
Certified in health and nutrition coaching, functional medicine, yoga, and meditation-with naturopathic nutrition soon to follow-Galiano has worked with hundreds of cancer patients and survivors all over the world in the past decade, 60 per cent of whom had been diagnosed with breast cancer. The incidence of breast cancer has tripled over the last 50 years, and the number of women under the age of 54 with breast cancer has increased.
