A breast cancer diagnosis changes so much.

Recovery can bring physical challenges you never expected — from discomfort and restricted movement to rebuilding confidence in your body again.

That’s why we’re proud to bring the Woman’sback backpack to Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia.

Designed specifically to reduce pressure through the chest, shoulder and underarm area, its patented clinically tested design supports comfort, movement, and confidence during recovery — and can also help people with other upper-body conditions.

Because sometimes the right support can help you feel stronger, freer, and more like yourself again.

Kia kaha. Kia Ĺ«.

Over the past couple of years,, I had the privilege of sharing my breast cancer journey at Pink Ribbon events.

Somewhere along the way, what began as diagnosis and treatment unexpectedly became purpose — helping bring these specially designed backpacks to Aotearoa through Altered Freedom.

Recovery can change your relationship with your body, movement, confidence, and even simple things like carrying a bag comfortably.

Events like these feel especially meaningful because we know firsthand how important the support of can be during a breast cancer journey.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who supported Breast Cancer Foundation NZ throughout Pink Ribbon Month. Your generosity helps fund vital research, education, and support for those affected by breast cancer across Aotearoa.

We’re incredibly grateful to be part of a community that continues to support, encourage, raise awareness, and fund vital research and care for those affected by breast cancer. 💗

With grateful hearts.

Messages like this mean so much.

A recent customer purchased one of our backpacks to support a shoulder injury, then put it to the test on the Tongariro Crossing.

Afterwards, she sent this message:

"Loved the backpack - very comfortable, and the waterproof cover came in very handy. Would highly recommend."

Seeing our backpacks support people to keep doing the things they love — whether navigating recovery, rebuilding strength, or simply getting back outdoors — is exactly why Altered Freedom exists.

Because freedom of movement matters.

The last day of autumn brought one of those classic Canterbury contradictions — a warm nor’wester with just enough chill to remind us the seasons are shifting. 🍂

With our last long weekend for a while, it was the perfect chance to get outside with my mokopuna and enjoy the simple gift of time in nature.

There’s something about being outdoors that helps us reset — space to breathe, reflect, and find balance again.

Sometimes freedom is found in grand adventures.
Sometimes it’s in the quieter moments: moving with ease and being fully present.

That’s why the WomansBack was created — to support freedom of movement, so these simple moments can be fully embraced.

As autumn gives way to winter, make space for what restores you.

Not everyone who gets breast cancer has a family history.

I carry the BRCA2 and PALB2 faulty genes, but many people are diagnosed with no known genetic link at all.
Please listen to your body.
Go to your appointments.

Advocate for yourself if something feels wrong.
Early detection, awareness, and education can change lives. 🤍

As a survivor, these conversations are deeply personal to me. They are also part of why Kathryn and I created Altered Freedom — to support people navigating recovery, treatment, and life after diagnosis.

Credit to and for helping bring these important conversations into the spotlight.

Pink Ribbon Month đź’—

Breast cancer changes more than treatment schedules and medical appointments.

It can change how you move through the world, how your body feels, and the confidence you have in carrying everyday things.

That’s one of the reasons Altered Freedom means so much to us.

These backpacks were designed with breast cancer recovery and lymphatic health in mind — helping women return to movement, fresh air, adventure, and everyday life with greater comfort.

And with every backpack sold, $5 is donated to Breast Cancer Foundation NZ đź’—

My mum has always been by my side, right from the very beginning of my life. 🤍
And through some of the hardest moments I’ve faced — diagnosis, treatment, and everything in between — she never stopped showing up with love, strength, patience, and support when I needed it most.

I know this journey was not only hard for me, but for her too. Watching someone you love go through so much while trying to stay strong for them is a kind
of pain many mothers quietly carry.

Even today, she is still here. Supporting me, encouraging me, and loving me through every stage of life.

This Mother’s Day, I just want to say thank you Mum. I’m forever grateful for everything you’ve carried with me. 🤍

And to all the mums — the ones holding it all together, fighting their own battles, grieving, healing, loving, and showing up every day — we see you and we celebrate you. Your love and strength never go unnoticed. 🤍

And for those missing their mums today, we’re holding you close in our thoughts too. 🤍

Wishing all mums a beautiful Mother’s Day. 🤍

A Christmas Eve toast to you.

To our customers, supporters, health professionals, friends, and everyone who has quietly encouraged us along the way — thank you. Truly.

As a small business, we’ll be stepping back from social media for a couple of weeks to rest and be present with our families.

🤍 We’ll still be processing orders during this time, so if you need us, we’re here.

Wishing you a safe, gentle, and very Merry Christmas.
We’ll see you in the new year.

— Kathryn & Primrose ✨
