Some people leave the room and you’re different because of them - Mark Fennell is one of those people. This week, I’m sharing my thoughts after sitting down with the incredible Mark Fennell - coach, speaker, mentor, and all-round powerhouse of perspective. In this minisode, I reflect on what really stayed with me from our conversation - from the bullying Mark experienced as a boy, to the way he transformed that pain into purpose by helping others. I talk about the importance of sharing your story, why I don’t believe in keeping trauma locked up, and how choice becomes the most powerful tool we have when life doesn’t go to plan. If you’ve ever struggled with self-worth, direction, or feeling like you had to hide your pain - this one’s for you. ✨ In this episode: What bullying taught Mark and what stayed with me Why I believe sharing our stories lightens the load How trauma becomes purpose when we speak it out loud My own experience with fertility and helping others heal The power of choice when you can’t control the outcome Why I believe everyone needs a “Mark Fennell” in their life You can find Mark here: Website | Instagram | TikTok ____ BeBelle is a podcast hosted by Sian Horn that dives into the stories of remarkable people behind their businesses.
