GUEST: LOTTIE CLARKE
In this deeply moving episode, Bryony Gordon speaks with Lottie Clarke about her husband James’s devastating motor neurone disease diagnosis and his decision to travel to Switzerland for an assisted death. Lottie shares the emotional toll of supporting James’s choice while navigating the complexities of family life, grief, and a system that left them feeling powerless.
This is a powerful story of love, resilience, and the fight for the right to choose a peaceful end. Lottie’s courage highlights why open conversations about death, dignity, and autonomy are so vital.

GUEST: HELEN FLANAGAN
In this week’s episode, I’m joined by actress Helen Flanagan for an honest mental health check-in, where we talk about her struggles with OCD, navigating motherhood, and finding peace after toxic relationships. Helen opens up about living with intrusive thoughts, the weight of “pure OCD,” and how it impacted her self-worth and sense of identity, especially post-pregnancy. She also shares candid insights into learning to love herself and breaking free from the pressure to be perfect.
This open conversation covers the importance of a supportive relationship, the courage it takes to be vulnerable, and how Helen redefined her mental health journey after years of self-doubt. She leaves us with a powerful reminder: we’re not alone in our struggles, and we all deserve to find someone who’s good for us mentally and emotionally.
Tune in to hear Helen’s journey of resilience, self-compassion, and her path to healing.

Welcome to Life of Bryony, where we dive into life’s messier moments.
GUEST: ANNA MATHUR:
In this week’s episode, I’m joined by psychotherapist Anna Mathur, who discusses the debilitating effects of "Good Girl Syndrome." We chat about the pressures women face to please others, the emotional toll it takes, and the internal conflict of suppressing one's true self for the sake of being liked. Anna shares her own experiences, from people-pleasing to burnout, and the journey toward setting boundaries and reclaiming her sense of self.
This candid conversation covers the difficulties of saying 'no,' the need to unlearn perfectionism, and the empowering moment when you realise that you don’t have to be ‘good’—you just have to be you.
Anna’s latest book ‘The Uncomfortable Truth: Change Your Life By Taming 10 of Your Mind's Greatest Fears’ is out now.
