The picture with my arms wide open told the truth before I did - freedom has been at the heart of my work from the beginning. This episode dives into the realisation that shifted everything, the evolution from EmpowerHer to The Freedom Programme, and the life-changing journey women will move through inside it.

In this Unsure to Unstoppable conversation, Donna is joined by Kirsty Strain, a voice and communications coach, Actor and breathwork instructor whose story is a beautiful example of strength, self-discovery, and alignment.

From the age of 12, Kirsty battled extreme fatigue and ill health, spending two of her teenage years bedbound before finally being diagnosed with ME at 19. What followed was a journey of deep healing - learning to listen to her body, rebuild trust within herself, and discover her own authenticity.

Now, as an aligned and intuitive coach, Kirsty helps others reconnect with their own voice and inner power through breath and embodied communication.

This episode is an inspiring reminder that even in our most uncertain seasons, healing and wholeness are possible - and that finding your voice can be the very key to becoming unstoppable.

This week, I’m joined by the incredible Lewis Gardiner - a man who’s transformed his life from the inside out, losing over 8 stone and gaining something far more powerful: his health, confidence, and sense of purpose.

Lewis shares how his journey was never just about the number on the scales - it was about reclaiming control, building self-respect, and choosing health over wealth, because as he says, “without your health, you have nothing.”

Now working as a healthcare support worker for the elderly, Lewis has seen first-hand what the future can look like when we neglect our wellbeing - and he’s on a mission to inspire others to act now so they can truly enjoy the years ahead.

This conversation is real, raw, and a reminder that the smallest changes today can transform every part of your life - body, mind, and soul.
