From a nomadic childhood and 13 schools before the age of 15 to managing a women’s health centre and navigating the public eye — Brodie Ryan has lived many lives in one.

In this candid episode, Brodie opens up about her personal journey, her upbringing in regional Victoria, and the life lessons that came with constant change. We explore her early days as a dental nurse in Mildura, her work in healthcare, and how those experiences shaped her passion in healthcare.

Now the Business Manager at Agora Specialist Centre, Brodie shares her commitment to women’s health — working alongside specialists and advocating for compassionate, informed care.

She also reflects on life after her high-profile breakup, finding peace, returning to work, and redefining what happiness and fulfillment look like in this new chapter.

From personal healing to professional purpose — this episode is raw, reflective, and powerfully real.
