Writers, friends and co-authors Jamila Rizvi and Rosie Waterland sit down with host Clare Bowditch for an honest, raw and deeply personal conversation about brain health – the physical and the mental – and their intertwined experiences of living with and supporting one another’s ‘broken brains’.
In their new book Broken Brains, Jamila and Rosie share their parallel experiences of illness, weaving together their own personal stories with the wisdom of those who have been there before. A candid and compassionate exploration of what it means to be sick – or to love someone who is – they offer comfort, solidarity and the understanding they both longed for at their lowest points.
With their signature warmth and humor, these two powerful and insightful women come together for a Melbourne-exclusive event to reflect on resilience, recovery and the immense power of friendship in navigating the hardest moments.
