In this powerful episode of Behind the Title, Melissa Cafferkey, Out of Home Agency Partner at Bauer Media Outdoor, opens up about her experience with breast cancer from diagnosis to remission and why she believes it’s vital to normalise conversations about cancer in the workplace. With honesty and warmth, Mel shares what it’s really like to return to work after treatment, the support she’s received (and wished for), and why saying the word ‘cancer’ out loud is the first step to breaking stigma. A moving, hopeful conversation about resilience, openness, and ringing the bell in her own way.

In any industry, job titles carry power, perception, and pressure. But behind every title CEO, CMO, CFO is a person navigating private challenges, mental health struggles, and silent turning points that shape who they are and how they lead.

Behind the Title is a candid podcast that pulls back the curtain on these personal stories.

Through honest, structured conversations with leaders at all levels, we explore the inner lives that fuel (and sometimes unravel) outer success.

Think of it as Alcoholics Anonymous for the media industry, but instead of substance, we talk about silence, stress, self-worth, and the systems that shape us.
