From Burnout to Breathwork: Louise’s Journey Back to Herself

In this powerful episode of Brave Everyday, I’m joined by the incredible Louise Mortimer, a breathwork practitioner, coach and space holder who turned her own pain into purpose.Louise shares her deeply honest journey through workplace bullying, sexual harassment, anxiety, panic attacks and burnout, and how cold water therapy, breathwork and nervous system work helped her slowly come back to herself.We talk about the impact of suffering in silence, why asking for help can feel so hard, the importance of boundaries, reconnecting with your body, and how healing is not always about becoming someone new, but returning to who you really are.Louise also shares how she left a successful sales career to follow her passion, build a business rooted in lived experience, and now helps others regulate, heal and reconnect with themselves.This conversation is raw, inspiring and full of powerful reminders that bravery is not about being fearless. Sometimes it is simply showing up, doing it scared, and choosing to keep going.You can follow Louise and her amazing work hereBook a discovery call here
