⚠️ Content warning: In this episode, we talk openly about cancer, illness, and death.
In this episode, I speak with the extraordinary Dr. Liz O’Riordan, a former oncoplastic breast surgeon turned author, speaker, and cancer advocate. After 20 years building her career, Liz’s life changed overnight when she was diagnosed with breast cancer at 40.
We talk about the drive that pushed her to the top of her field, the pressures of balancing life and career, and the coping mechanisms that got her through. Liz shares what it was like to face cancer with a surgeon’s knowledge of the disease, the heartbreak of losing her fertility, and the impact of two recurrences that ultimately ended her surgical career.
This conversation explores what it means to rebuild identity when everything is stripped away, and the unexpected strength and perspective breast cancer gave her.
