#19. Breaking Records to Break Down Barriers: Marathon Running Topless after Mastectomy; Louise Butcher’s Empowering Story

  • Resumen

  • Trigger Warning: This episode discuss cancer diagnosis, treatment and more in detail. Please take care of yourself, and hit pause at any stage and if now isn't the right time to listen, please to feel free to come back at a better time for you or those around you. After seeing images on Instagram of Louise Butcher crossing the line of the London Marathon with such pride, I realised what I was seeing was a truly incredible story. Delving deeper into Louise’s story on her vlog on Instagram, I was taken by how positive she is, despite having lived through one of the hardest experiences life can throw at you. In today’s episode of the @makemovementmatterpodcast Louise tells us about the rollercoaster that has been the last few years of her life. She candidly shares her experience of living with health anxiety and then being diagnosed with lobular breast cancer. Having running in her life wasn’t just a physical activity, it became a lifeline for managing her mental health and she is now using it as a way to break records to break down barriers with her Guinness World Record as 'the fastest marathon with a double mastectomy'. Challenging societal stigmas surrounding breast cancer and life after mastectomy, Louise wants to start important conversations to bring greater awareness and I respect her immensely.
