What happens after winning Bake Off?

Jasmine Mitchell joins us to talk about perfectionism, alopecia, self-image, and learning to be fully yourself in a world obsessed with image.

Jasmine reflects on growing up in a home shaped by hospitality, losing her hair as a teenager, learning to let go of perfection, and the unexpected journey that took her from medical school to winning British Bake Off 2025.

Elizabeth Oldfield and Jasmine explore:

• Why “go slow” became Jasmine’s grounding philosophy
• Her journey with alopecia and being fully seen
• Reality TV, public image and is Bake Off different from the rest?
• Why hospitality and shared meals matter so deeply
