The Hurdle2Hope® Show

After a health crisis, there’s a part of recovery that doesn’t get spoken about enough. 

It’s not just the physical side. It’s the feeling that life keeps moving… and you’re not. 

In this episode, I talk about what it actually feels like when plans change, when you hesitate to commit, and when you’re trying to move forward but don’t fully trust your body yet. 

I also share how frustration shows up in this stage of recovery, and why i...

This episode explores: 

• Why you don’t want to wait until crisis to understand your support sy...

I was drawing on everything I had already built. 

This episode explores: 

• Why inner work is not optional 
• How MS and ...

Leading up to my hospitalisation, I was dealing with a difficult personal situation and a significant amount of stress. At the time I be...

A few weeks ago my body went into septic shock and I spent eight days in ICU.

You’ve just been handed a life-changing diagnosis for your child — now what?
