Jodie Hollis – Cancer Support Angels

In this powerful and heartwarming episode of The Glitter Effect, host Kate sits down with Jodie Hollis, the inspirational founder and CEO of Cancer Support Angels. Jodie shares the deeply personal story behind the creation of her not-for-profit organisation, born out of her own battle with cancer and the stark realisation that far too many patients face their fight alone. Motivated by the lack of in-person support and practical assistance, Jodie took action—starting with a humble Spyrax notebook and a vision to build something meaningful. From its grassroots beginnings, Cancer Support Angels has blossomed into a nationwide network offering emotional, financial, and practical aid to cancer patients and their families. Jodie speaks candidly about the early days of uncertainty, the people who encouraged her to take the leap, and the many lives touched by the organisation’s work. Her story is one of resilience, compassion, and community—perfectly embodying the spirit of the Glitter Effect. This episode is a tribute to the impact one person can make when they decide to lead with heart and purpose. Tune in to be inspired by Jody’s journey, her incredible work, and her unwavering commitment to spreading kindness like glitter. Cancer Support Angels: https://www.cancersupportangels.org.au/
