In this powerful anonymous letter, one woman opens up about losing herself in a relationship that dimmed her light — and the quiet, courageous steps she took to rebuild her confidence, boundaries, and sense of worth. It’s a story about choosing yourself, one small act of self-love at a time, and learning that healing isn’t weakness — it’s power.

In this podcast series, Power to her creates a space for the everyday woman to feel seen, heard and empowered. This is a place for real stories...... the challenges, the setbacks and the strength it takes to rise again. Its about opening up honest conversations around life, career, relationships, motherhood and personal growth, while giving voice to the experiences so many of us carry quietly.

Why does this space exist? because too often women face adversity in silence. Here, we share the lessons, the tools and the breakthroughs that help us turn pain into power. Each episode is about building confidence, finding resilience and reminding you that you are not alone on your journey!

This podcast is more than conversation........its a place for women who refuse to be defined by their struggles and instead choose to grow stronger through them.

If this podcast helps even just one woman then I'm doing something right.

In this deeply moving episode of Power to Her, we explore what it’s like to grow up around addiction and abuse — and the incredible strength it takes to walk away from it as an adult.

This conversation shares the raw reality of living with a loved one’s addiction, the emotional scars that linger, and the moment you realise that protecting your own children sometimes means stepping away from someone you love.

It’s about choosing peace over pain. It’s about breaking the cycle and deciding that your story, and your children’s story, will look different.

You’ll hear how awareness turns into healing, and how setting boundaries — though painful — can also become one of the most empowering acts of love.

If this episode resonates with you, please remember that you’re not alone. Support is out there, and reaching out is a sign of strength, not weakness.

In this heartfelt episode of Power to Her, I sit down with Morgan, a brave and open young woman who moved from Ireland to the UK to begin university, just one month after being diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD).

Morgan opens up about what it was like to start this new chapter of her life while navigating her diagnosis, understanding her medication, and finding her place in a new environment where she didn’t know anyone.

She speaks honestly about the challenges of her first year, feeling isolated, misunderstood, and overwhelmed — and how things began to change once she surrounded herself with the right people and found a circle of support built on kindness and non-judgement.

This episode is a reminder that mental health journeys take time, that asking for help is a sign of strength, and that finding people who see you for who you are, not your diagnosis, can completely change your path.

A Note for Listeners:

If you or someone you love is living with BPD or struggling with their mental health, please remember...... you are not alone. Help is out there, and with the right support, life can and does get brighter.
