Breast Cancer at 32: Tanner Roe’s Story of Strength

Breast Cancer at 32: Tanner Roe’s Story of Strength

In this episode, I sit down with Tanner Roe, a 32-year-old flight attendant from San Diego whose life changed the moment she heard the words “you have breast cancer.” Diagnosed with Stage 1B breast cancer and currently in active treatment, Tanner has become a source of strength and honesty in a season most of us can’t imagine.

Through humor, vulnerability, and a willingness to share the parts people don’t always talk about, Tanner has found her own way to navigate the fear, the heaviness, and the uncertainty, while giving herself full permission to feel every hard moment along the way. She shares her journey openly in hopes of helping others feel seen, understood, and less alone.


In this conversation, Tanner opens up about:

  • The moment her diagnosis changed everything
  • What active treatment has looked and felt like
  • How she finds moments of humor amid the hard
  • Allowing herself to process the emotional weight of it all
  • How listening to your intuition could quite literally save your life
  • What intimacy looks like during treatment


To follow Tanner’s journey, find her on Instagram at @Tbroe11.

This episode is real, raw, and full of the kind of strength you can feel. Tanner’s story will stay with you long after you listen.
