This is a podcast about what happens when life and medicine collide – and how people overcome, adapt and thrive in the face of life’s health challenges. Each week, Dr Oscar Duke (GP on BBC Morning Live and author of How to Be a Dad) is joined by a guest who opens up about the challenges they’ve faced with their health – from chronic conditions and everyday health hurdles to life-altering surgeries – and how those experiences shaped their life’s achievements and path to success.
Guests will also be discussing some of the incredible and surprising bedside manners they’ve encountered along the way, as well as bringing along burning questions about their conditions, answered by top specialists and leading medical experts to explain the science, bust myths and offer guidance.

Julia Bradbury on Breast Cancer and the Power of Nature
TV presenter and nature lover Julia Bradbury joins Dr Oscar Duke to share her breast cancer story. She opens up about discovering a lump while filming in Costa Rica, the delays and doubts of early diagnosis, and the moment she heard the words: “It’s cancer.” She shares the emotional impact of telling her children, navigating life post-mastectomy, and how her daughter helped name her reconstructed breast “Motzy.”
From biopsies to body image, from walking through forests to walking through fear, Julia speaks with honesty and hope about surviving and thriving.
Oscar is also joined by consultant breast and oncoplastic surgeon Joanna Franks from HCA Healthcare UK, who breaks down breast screening, dense breasts, genetic testing, and what every woman (and man) should know about risk and early detection.
