Exhaustion was supposed to mean she was winning.

Georgie was 28, successful, and always tired – until her “busy London life” unravelled into a stage 4 cancer diagnosis and sudden menopause.

Night sweats, savage itching, colds that never ended… all waved away as stress. Then she felt the lump in her neck.

She remembers the moment her fingers found the lump: hard, unmissable, and suddenly, everything made sense in the worst possible way.

The months of bone-deep fatigue, the drenched sheets, the itch that tore her skin open at 3 a.m.—they were never just side effects of ambition.

They were evidence. Her body had been pleading with her, and the world kept calling it “burnout.”
