This week on Beyond Your Bits, I’m joined by Dr Hannah Bourke, a beloved GP on the Sunshine Coast in Australia, for a deeply honest conversation about her personal breast cancer journey — from diagnosis and treatment through to recovery, identity, and navigating life as both a doctor and a patient.
Hannah shares the emotional and physical realities of breast cancer, the decisions she faced along the way, and the insights she gained from experiencing medicine from the other side as a patient. We also dive into prevention, early detection, breast awareness, and the options women have when it comes to screening, surgery, support, and advocating for their health.
With around 10% of all women at risk of breast cancer, and 1 in 7 women expected to be diagnosed in their lifetime, these conversations matter. This episode is about empowerment through knowledge, listening to your body, and having the confidence to seek help early.
Whether you’ve personally experienced breast cancer, supported someone through it, or simply want to better understand your own health, this is an episode filled with compassion, education, and hope.
