What if losing your breasts led you to discover your greatest strength? 

Louise Butcher is back on Wellbeing Interrupted, and her story is more powerful than ever. After making headlines as the first woman to run the London Marathon topless post-mastectomy, Louise has since broken records, sparked global conversations, and challenged the way we think about body image, confidence, and femininity.
