Join us as we talk to Dana Shea.


At 24 years old, Dana Shea thought the pain she felt after a Pilates class was probably nothing serious. But a visit to the GP quickly turned into scans, emergency surgery, and a life-changing diagnosis — a rare ovarian cancer called an immature teratoma.


In this episode, Dana shares the shock of being diagnosed so young, undergoing surgery, and facing three months of chemotherapy with little time to process what was happening.


More than a decade later, Dana is cancer-free, a mum of two, and using her experience to help support others navigating life after cancer.


This conversation is honest, emotional, and full of hope — touching on fertility, identity, friendship, humour through hard moments, and the importance of listening to your body when something feels “off.”


Dana’s story is a powerful reminder that cancer can happen at any age, and that early action can change everything.
