About Me Abbey Mitchell
I am founder of My Healing Community, co-creator of the Breast Cancer Pathways Worksheet, lead admin, and founder of The Healing Cancer Study Support Group
My journey with cancer began in 2014 with a diagnosis of lobular breast cancer at the age of 43, which led to a left mastectomy and no further engagement with the world of oncology until 2017, when I learned the cancer had metastasised to nine areas in my bones. I then met with an oncologist and dedicated myself to learning and practising every aspect of integrative healing. I immersed myself in new habits and dietary protocols, explored ways to inhibit hormonal and inflammatory pathways, and embraced the power of movement, stillness, mind, and emotions.
This comprehensive approach granted me a long period with no evidence of disease. Now in my mid-50s, I am grateful to live a simple life in the bush, just five minutes from the sea on the beautiful mid-north coast of Australia. After a recent scan in mid-2025 revealed a new lesion on one vertebra, I am once again engaging with a carefully researched, holistic healing protocol.
My personal experience is the foundation of my work as a cancer healing advocate. Since 2019, I have acted as a compassionate guide, curating free resources for individuals navigating their own cancer journeys. My role is to connect people with research and information on conventional, integrative, and complementary therapies. I help them foster a holistic approach that addresses not just the physical, but also the psychological and spiritual challenges of their diagnosis.
Day to day, I facilitate a worldwide community, enabling people to share experiences and learn from one another. By encouraging a deeper understanding of cancer research, I strive to improve the quality of life and empower individuals to become active, informed participants in their healing process.
