Discover the empowering story of Dr. Liz O’Riordan, a breast cancer surgeon turned patient, who talks about the truth behind her dual identity in the realm of medicine. Our latest episode takes you through Liz's personal transition, delving into her fight against the very disease she once treated. As she navigates the stormy seas of breast cancer, her early retirement due to treatment complications, and the sexism she faced in her career, Liz holds nothing back. She's turned her trials into a beacon of hope and understanding, using writing and social media to connect with and support others, while challenging myths that cloud the realities of living with cancer. She has written Co written The Complete Guide to Breast Cancer with Professor Trisha Greenhalgh and Under the knife, her own personal memoir.
Step into Liz's world beyond the hospital as she shares the joy she finds in exercise, her familial 'jar of joy,' and the therapeutic release of blogging and podcasting. It's an intimate glimpse into how she's reshaped her life around health and happiness, maintaining her identity through fitness endeavors like triathlons and icy river swims, while also indulging in the art of baking (I want that muffin recipe!). This episode is an inspiring look at how she balances self-care, connecting with a community that understands her struggle, and staying active in charitable work, all while advocating for the crucial link between fitness and health.
