By passing the microphone (literally!) to a well-known name, join Zoe to learn their story.

Together, we’ll all leave each episode with a greater understanding.

Customer Reviews
Crohn’s with Carrie Grant
Excellent. Carrie’s initial feelings mirrored mine, how I felt when diagnosed. It’s soul destroying. Filtering out pain. It’s things no one else will understand. Great to raise awareness of this horrible disease.
Fascinating
Thank you so much for this Dr. Zoe!
They should teach this in schools…
Dr Zoe’s empathy and intelligence really elevate this podcast.
The honesty of her chat with Adelle really resonated with me, and the clinical discussion (towards the end) gave me a real understanding of how living with dementia affects loved ones, and can be navigated in a respectful way.
