Greetings from across the pond. I sit down with Dr. Liz O’Riordan (@oriordanliz), a UK-based breast cancer surgeon by training turned advocate after her own invasive lobular breast cancer diagnosis at age 40. She has since dedicated her life to educating and empowering people affected by breast cancer. She is an international speaker and author of “The Complete Guide to Breast Cancer: How to Feel Empowered and Take Control” and her memoir, “Under the Knife: The Rise and Fall of a Female Surgeon.
We discuss how her diagnosis changed her perspective and purpose, and she shares wisdom after having been on both sides of breast cancer.
We hope you love this episode as much as we do.

Let’s get real about breast cancer & menopause with Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz!
Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz is a board-certified OB/GYN specializing in menopause & integrative medicine doctor. She's the Founder & author of “Menopause Bootcamp: Optimize Your Health, Empower Yourself, and Flourish as You Age.” She is also a breast cancer thriver herself. But many people, including myself, know her as Dr. Suzanne from the Drew Barrymore show.
Dr. Suzanne shares her breast cancer journey, from that initial shock of diagnosis to the decisions she made about treatment & genetic testing. We're going to dig deep into how you can navigate your own journey. Whether it's understanding the importance of screenings, having those sometimes difficult conversations with family, or figuring out your options regarding treatment & hormone replacement therapy, Dr. Suzanne is here to empower you with knowledge.
We're about to unpack a lot of important information, and hopefully, by the end of this episode, you'll feel a little more equipped to face whatever challenges lie ahead.
We cover a lot in this important conversation, including:
Dr. Suzanne's breast cancer diagnosis and treatmentHer perspective on self-breast exams and mammogramsGenetic testing for breast cancerTalking to family members about a breast cancer diagnosisImportance of having a support system during cancer treatmentMenopause and hormone replacement therapy (HRT)Misconceptions about breast cancer and HRTThe role of the media in disseminating medical informationImportance of considering individual needs and tailoring treatment plansScrutiny of large studies and medical organizationsA doctor's experience on becoming a tv personalityContact Dr. Suzanne

I am so excited to introduce you to my cancer besties, Missi and Alice, who turned their breast cancer journeys into purpose!
Cancer Besties is an incredible online toolbox that translates your imaging & lab reports into plain English, & also provides a list of follow-up questions to ask your provider. 🤯 (When I posted about it on @theboobiedocs, you all went crazy with good reason!)
We talk about each of their breast cancer journeys & how this inspired them to create Cancer Besties. Missi was found to carry a BRCA 1 mutation and underwent a prophylactic bilateral mastectomy. She then helped her friend Alice, who was diagnosed with breast cancer after her first mammogram.
We cover a lot in this important conversation, including:
•What to expect for your mammogram & biopsy
•Understanding your imaging & biopsy results
•How to calculate your own breast cancer risk score using the Tyrer-Cuzick calculator
•The real reason you can’t wear deodorant during a mammogram…
And so much more!
I hope you love this conversation as much as we do.

It is my incredible honor to introduce you to my friends at the Pink Eraser Project, a newly launched nonprofit to help accelerate the development of the breast cancer vaccine, which thanks to their support & top cancer researchers around the country, could be a reality in the next 5 to 10 years. (Yes you read that right!!) 🤯
I joined by cofounder, Kristen Dahlgren, an Emmy nominated NBC reporter & medical correspondent for nearly 3 decades, who recently stepped down from her role to launch the Pink Eraser project, which as a breast cancer thriver, is a project so dear to heart.🎀
Kristen joins me with her cofounder & friend, Michele Young, who also happens to be a badass lawyer, stage 4 breast cancer thriver & advocate. Their mission, to support the ongoing clinical trials & cancer vaccine researchers including Kiran Dillon, PhD, Executive Director of the University of Washington Cancer vaccine Institute, who joins me on the podcast as well.
I promise this podcast episode will leave feeling hopeful, inspired, & wanting to support their mission of erasing breast cancer.
Sending you love. Thank you for listening. 💕

I am joined by my longtime friend Dr. Heidi Hutman, who also happens to be a Clinical Psychologist & Associate Professor of Psychology at a University in Philadelphia.
Not gonna lie, this conversation gets a little emo. 🖤
We reflect on 2023 & manifest for 2024, while discussing the hedonic treadmill of success & the struggles of balancing work, life, & social media.
I also open up about my diagnosis of ADHD, why she didn’t tell me, common symptoms, & tips/ treatment for ADHD.
This is a real and raw conversation that we hope you get something out of, & a reminder that it’s ok not to be ok. 🫶
We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we do.

Prepare to have your mind blown with this @ggtobc episode featuring my new friend & mentor, Dr. Beth Dupree. 🤯 A Breast Surgical Oncologist by training, a series of impactful life events & a spiritual awakening fueled her desire to heal the whole patient. She transformed her clinical practice towards Integrative Medicine which led her to her latest clinical interest, Psychedelics in cancer care.
@drbethdupree & I bond over our shared love of “Many Lives, Many Masters” & delve into the role of Psychedelics & Spirituality in cancer care, chronic illness, & survivorship. We also discuss the issues with Western medicine, physician burnout, & how she handles the haters & naysayers.
It is truly the Universe that led me to Dr. Dupree, & this conversation is the beginning of our beautiful bond.
It left me wanting more, & I am now halfway through her first book, “The Healing Consciousness: A Doctor’s Journey to Healing,” which I highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I hope you love this eye-opening conversation as much as I do! (& if you do, please leave me a review! 🫶)

Now is the right time to share this important conversation that I recorded back in May, 2023 with Lizzy Savetsky & Dr. Ira Savetsky.
@drirasavetsky is a Manhattan based plastic surgeon. @lizzysavetsky is a digital fashion influencer, matchmaker, mother if 3 & one of the most outspoken advocates for Israel. 🇮🇱
We discuss the antisemitism that their family has been subjected their family to, particularly during their premature departure from the most recent reboot of the Real Housewives of New York & over prior conflicts in the Middle East.
This conversation is even important now given recent world events & the rise in antisemitism. ✡️
But this is mainly an open conversation about breast health. We talk all about breast implants (spoiler alert, Dr. Savetsky did Lizzie’s breasts himself!), the rise in young breast cancer, & the increased risk of BRCA mutations in the Ashkenazi Jewish population. We also talk about finding balance in social media & Lizzy’s sobriety journey.
I also offer my best breast cancer screening advice for those at higher-than-average risk for breast cancer.
I am thrilled to be offering free genetic screening for the first 25 listeners thanks to @getjscreened & @kickbrca! 🙌
I hope you learn something from this conversation. I wish you peace & safety wherever you are. 💕

IT’S OUR 2️⃣ YEAR PODCAST ANNIVERSARY!!🥳 & we’re celebrating by having our first repeat guest, Dr. Elyce Cardonick from @cancerandpregnancy. But this time, she’s sharing about her own diagnosis of rectal cancer & what it’s been like to go from doctor to patient.
We talk about the rise in cancer in young people, the unforeseen side effects of chemotherapy, scanxiety, & she offers her best advice for those going through chemotherapy or supporting someone who is. And, of course, we dedicate the last part of the episode to her area of expertise, cancer during pregnancy.
Dr. Cardonick offers so much wisdom & insight, & we are so grateful to have her share her story with us.
I hope you love this podcast episode as much as I do! (if you do, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts! 🍏🍎)

I am so happy to be chatting with three incredible women from The Breasties, Kelli Goss, Lauren Oxenhandler, & Kelsey Litwin. The Breasties is the first all-inclusive nonprofit for breast & gynecologic cancer that creates a community for survivor, previvors, thrivers, & carevivors through peer-to-peer connection, resources, & advocacy.
We chat about their connection to breast cancer, how The Breasties helped them, and the upcoming Camp Breastie, a four-day summit June 1-4 where hundreds of people impacted by breast and gynecologic cancer come together for community, patient advocacy, and education. (Registration closes May 1 so it’s not too late to join!) 🫶
Kelli Goss is a BRCA1 previvor and the daughter of a two-time breast cancer survivor. In 2018, after discovering that she carried the BRCA gene mutation, Kellie opted to have a prophylactic mastectomy and hysterectomy to lower the risk of cancer. She shares her BRCA1 journey in the hopes that women of color will see themselves represented when making informed decisions about breast and ovarian health, early detection, and genetic counseling. Kelli is The Breasties Director of Diversity Equity + Inclusion.
Lauren Oxenhandler is a transformational Life Coach and Reiki II practitioner. She is cancer-free after her stage II triple negative breast cancer diagnosis in 2017. After finishing chemotherapy, Lauren felt isolated and craved connection to a community of people who understood what she was going through. She discovered The Breasties, and now serves as
Director of Virtual Programming.
Kelsey Litwin discovered that she carries the BRCA1 gene mutation at 22 years old & was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer two years later, just prior to her prophylactic mastectomy. Kelsey is a freelance journalist, editor, and communications specialist based in Montreal, Canada and is passionate about making health information accessible. She writes and edits for The Peak, working to create content that resonates with, comforts and supports all members of the Breasties community.
I hope you love this conversation as much as I do! 💕

I am joined by two of the incredible founders of A Damn Good Life, Victoria Raphael and Ann Palmer, who are no stranger to breast cancer diagnosis at a young age & the impact it can have on a woman’s fertility journey.
Victoria was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 33 & faced treatment related infertility. After a long surrogacy journey, she welcomed her first son via a surrogate earlier this year. 👶🏻 Victoria is about to start her second surrogacy journey with the surrogate’s twin sister! (HELLO LIFETIME MOVIE!)
Ann watched her mom battle breast cancer for a decade when she was a teenager, & thanks to high-risk screening, she was diagnosed with early stage breast cancer at age 36 during COVID.
After their own battles with breast cancer & infertility, they both wanted to give back in a tangible way. Together with friend Sarrah Strimel Bentley, also a young breast cancer thriver currently on her own surrogacy journey, they created A Damn Good Life to make surrogacy a reality for young breast cancer thrivers who do not have the financial resources themselves.
Thanks to tons of fundraising events & “lots of blood, sweat, & tears,” they will be gifting their first total surrogacy journey at the end of the month! The first round of applications are due Monday, April 10, but they plan to continue their mission
We talk about i their breast cancer & fertility journeys, why this organization is so near & dear to their heart, & their ideal grant candidate!

This is part ✌️ of my incredible conversion with my friend, Kristina Burke, on navigating the complexities of a cancer diagnosis as both a patient & caregiver (if you missed part ☝️- start there!). Trigger alert, this is a heartbreaking but very important conversation. 💔
Kristina was battling her own breast cancer diagnosis when her beloved husband, Jim Burke, a young, previously healthy, renowned chef at Wm. Mulherin & Sons, was diagnosed with a rare form of metastatic lung cancer (EGFR positive). 🥺
We reflect on how they navigated cancer together with their young family, & Kristina offers incredible insight on how to advocate for yourself & others. Sadly, Jim lost his 2-year battle with lung cancer a few months back at the age of 49. 🥺😭
We reflect on Jim’s life, legacy, moving through grief, & how the Philadelphia culinary community came together to support Team Burke. Trust me, you won’t want to miss it. 😘
I am truly grateful to Kristina for sharing their incredible story and hope you benefit from this conversation. ❤️🩹

Earlier this week was National Caregivers Day, a day to honor the incredible sacrifices that Caregivers make for their loved ones.
This is the perfect opportunity to share this two-part conversation with my dear friend, Kristina Burke, on navigating the complexities of a cancer diagnosis as both a patient & caregiver. Trigger alert, this is a heartbreaking but very important conversation. 💔
Kristina was diagnosed with breast cancer off a screening mammogram in her 40s despite having no known family history. While undergoing her own breast cancer treatment during the pandemic, the unthinkable happened. Her husband, Jim Burke, a young, previously healthy, renowned Philadelphia chef at Wm. Mulherin & Sons, was diagnosed with a
rare form of metastatic lung cancer (EGFR positive). 🥺
We reflect on how they navigated cancer together with their young family, & Kristina offers incredible insight on how to advocate for yourself & others. Sadly, Jim lost his 2-year battle with lung cancer a few months back at the age of 49. 🥺😭
We check in on Team Burke & reflect on the past few years. Tune back for part ✌️ of this incredible combo as we reflect on Jim’s life, legacy, & moving through grief. Trust me, you won’t want to miss it. 😘
I am truly grateful to Kristina for sharing their incredible story and hope you benefit from this conversation. ❤️🩹
