What do you do when the life you've spent everything building is suddenly taken away from you overnight? Stephanie Millward MBE was 16, a British record-breaking swimmer heading for the Sydney Olympics, when she went blind, lost the ability to walk and was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Doctors gave her 10 years to live.
She's now 44.
In this episode, Stephanie takes me through one of the most extraordinary stories of reinvention I've ever heard ... how she learned to hold a funeral for her old self, get back in the pool, and go on to compete at four Paralympic Games, winning gold medals that nobody ... including her ... ever thought she'd live long enough to win.
We talk about silencing the voice that tells you you're not enough, why every single bad thing that has ever happened to you might just be the best thing that ever happened to you, and how to write the ending of your story before you've even begun to live it.
If you've ever faced a moment where everything felt lost ... this one is for you.
