SPACE BETWEEN DESPAIR AND HOPE with Fiona Jefferies

If there was one thing you think society should talk more about, what would it be?“How do you keep going when you’ve lost hope?” **Content warning - this episode touches on self-harm and suicide.

Since launching the business in 2001 from her dining table and a $5000 loan, Fiona and her team have delivered over 1000 sales offices - being the ultimate in first impressions. Despite being an incredibly successful business woman who has survived the pandemic when many in her industry have not, we don’t touch on any of this today. Fiona wanted to come talk to me about something completely different. She’s an advocate for mental health and she wants to share how her life changed dramatically only a few years ago after she hit the pits of despair. But it’s not what happened to her and how she got there - Fiona wants to talk about the important part that many stories miss - the part of how she got out of that pit. It’s a deep and emotional conversation that took me by surprise at times. I hope you enjoy this episode with the lovely Fiona Jefferies. For more information about Fiona, check out these places;-Instagram: InstLinkedin:LkFacebook:  Fb.Youtube: YtWebsite: www.divaworks.com.auHead to michellejcox.com for more information about the ONE QUESTION podcast, your host or today’s guestsConnect with Michelle on Instagram here:- @michellejcoxConnect with Michelle on Facebook here - @michellejcoxAND, if you have a burning topic you’d love society to talk more about, or know someone who’d be great to come on the One Question podcast, drop me a line at [email protected]
