A Hero’s Journey Through Breast Cancer: Healing Mind, Body & Spirit with Leanne Hughes

Where every story spins into inspiration today’s episode of The Mindset Playground shines a powerful light on the truth, courage, and resilience behind real healing.

Today, I’m joined by Leanne Hughes, Holistic Breast Cancer Mentor, Physiotherapist, and creator of A Hero’s Journey, a transformative program designed to support women beyond the diagnosis, through every emotional and physical step of their healing.

With over 25 years of physiotherapy experience and the lived wisdom of her own breast cancer journey, Leanne is redefining what compassionate, holistic care looks like. Her work is approved by Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA) and blends trauma-aware guidance with evidence-informed tools that honour the whole woman, mind, body, and spirit.

In this deeply moving conversation, we explore:

✨ Why healing is more than treatment and how breast cancer affects identity, emotions, and confidence
✨ The four pillars of A Hero’s Journey: Mindset, Medicine, Movement, and Mastery
✨ How to rebuild strength safely and gently, especially after surgery or fatigue
✨ Tools to reduce fear and find emotional grounding when everything feels overwhelming
✨ Why lived experience matters and how Leanne now walks beside women one step at a time
✨ The power of her NEW app, leannehughesphysio, which gives women instant access to tools, lessons, calming support, and movement sessions wherever they are, whenever they need it

Her App is a nurturing companion offering gentle guidance, physiotherapy-led movement, mindset tools, emotional support, and daily practices that help women feel safer, calmer, and more in control through every stage of their breast cancer journey.

Leanne’s message is grounded, real, and deeply compassionate.
If you or someone you love is navigating breast cancer, this episode will offer comfort, clarity, and a renewed sense of hope.
