Season 3 Episode 6

New Episode: Amy Carroll – Strength, Resilience, and Life Beyond BRCA1

In this episode, we sit down with Amy Carroll, a model and actor also known by her stage name Darcie Diamond. Amy shares her powerful journey of living with the BRCA1 gene mutation, which significantly increases the risk of breast and ovarian cancer.

After making the life-changing decision to undergo a double mastectomy, Amy talks openly about resilience, identity, and how she continues to thrive in the worlds of modelling and acting. We explore the science behind BRCA1, what it means to inherit the mutation, and why genetic testing and early screening are vital tools for prevention and informed decision-making.

This conversation is not only about genetics and medicine, but also about courage, self-discovery, and the strength it takes to embrace life after such a profound challenge.
