A unique series of interviews led by Mortal And Strong charity founder, Dr Liz Murray. Season 1 follows 100 women from the Scars of Gold campaign; an innovative health campaign putting the spotlight on women facing life changing or incurable health conditions at a young age. Exploring all health conditions from cancer to autoimmune conditions, gynaecological conditions, neurological...discussing how these women have faced life changing health problems but found a way to navigate through it and how they found their strength. Each episode explores the individual Voice's journey, before exploring how they found strength in darker days and ending on our infamous last question "when you wake up on a morning, what brings you joy?".
A unique podcast led by Dr Liz Murray, who was a medical doctor for over 10 years before complex health issues led her to leave a clinical facing role. Dr Liz then founded the charity Mortal And Strong to provide education, support and advocacy for people facing life changing health conditions at a young age. In the first 100 Voices we have covered over 140 critical health conditions, sharing messages of hope and strength, being real and honest. Trying to change the social stigma of disease, trying to provide a beacon of light to those in the early stages of their journey.
"One day your story will become someone else's survival guide".

Next up on the Mortal and Strong podcast is the wonderful soul that is Amie. Amie talks us through her story of experiencing sudden Cardiac Arrest, resulting in a serious car accident, that she incredibly walked away from fairly unscathed. Amie shares of the years and years she was dismissed by doctors, despite having continuous cardiac symptoms since she was a teenager, and tells of the mental and physical impact this lack of support had on her.
Amie shares a unique insight into what it's like living with 'arrhythmogenic bileaflet mitral valve prolapse', and the isolation you can feel when facing such a rare condition with little sense of community. Thanks to charities like Heart Charged, she has found her voice, and feels encouraged to speak out about being a young person facing her mortality through ill cardiac health.
We are so grateful to Amie for becoming part of the Scars of Gold campaign, and are excited to see her continuing efforts in raising awareness of cardiac conditions!
Scars of Gold is a health awareness campaign sharing the voices of 100 women facing their mortality at a young age with life changing or incurable health conditions. Produced by charity @mortalandstrong (No.1209448).
