'What might feel like the worst thing in your life, could, in a way, be the best thing:' Adele Roberts on why she feels like cancer has made her 'a better person' on the first episode of The Life of Bryony


Episode 1: Can you learn to love your body? With Adele Roberts  

Welcome to the very first episode of Life of Bryony, the podcast where we dive headfirst into life’s messier bits and skip the shame. Today’s all about bodies—the bits we love, hate, and everything in between.

I’m joined by the incredible Adele Roberts, a woman who not only survived bowel cancer but ran a world record marathon with a stoma. She’s here to talk about body acceptance, breaking records, and how she came out the other side stronger (and faster!) than ever.

Adele’s Book is Called ‘Personal Best: From Rock Bottom to the Top of the World’ and is out now!

INTRODUCING The Life of Bryony podcast: 

Welcome to The Life of Bryony, the twice-weekly podcast that ditches the shame and dives headfirst into life’s messier bits.

Every Monday and Friday, Bryony takes you on a refreshingly honest journey through the ups, downs, and WTFs of everyday life, joined by experts, friends, and sometimes even YOU.

Whether it’s laughing through awkward encounters, tackling taboos, or sharing confessions, this is your go-to space for real talk and all things mental health. Think of it as your weekly dose of therapy, minus the couch.

The Life of YOU: on Friday’s Bryony and her guest of the week will answer your dilemmas, while trying their best not to make things worse!
