I had the privilege of interviewing Mary Ann Kenny, author of The Episode: A True Story of Loss, Madness and Healing.
Mary Ann is a lecturer, writer, and mother who shares her deeply personal journey with honesty and courage.
In our conversation, Mary Ann opens up about the unimaginable: the sudden loss of her husband John, who died while out for a jog just days after her 50th birthday.
Grief quickly spiralled into severe mental distress, and within a few months, she found herself being treated in a psychiatric hospital, struggling through psychosis and depression’
Her story is one of heartbreak, survival, and incredible resilience — and of how she slowly found her way back to herself, rebuilding life piece by piece.
It’s a powerful, moving chat about grief, mental health, and hope. I’m so grateful to Mary Ann for sharing her story. She is such a fantastic, strong woman and I can't wait for you to hear her story.

In this episode, I’m sharing the truth about quitting — why we’re tempted to quit when it feels hard, when the routine isn’t working, or when that negative self-talk kicks in. I’ll take you behind the scenes of my own life: the abusive relationships I left, the scrubbing gym floors after my degree, the battles building my business, giving up drink, and figuring out how to survive weekends without it.
The one thing that got me through it all? I didn’t quit. I tweaked. I kept going. And that’s what I want for you too.
If you’re feeling stuck, doubting yourself, or ready to give up — this one’s for you.

Do you feel like you eat, drink, and scroll too much — and wish you didn’t?
I drank too much for years. I overate for years too. And while I didn’t hate it all the time, towards the end… I just felt stuck. Every day felt like Groundhog Day. Every Monday felt like I was starting again.
I wasn’t making progress in the areas that mattered to me. I felt unfit, tired, and sluggish all the time. My clothes didn’t feel right, and I didn’t feel good in my skin.
In this episode, I’m sharing how I broke free from each of those habits. I used a different strategy for alcohol and for food — and both have changed my life in different ways.
Tune in to hear:
- The big turning point in my alcohol journey
- Why I had to handle sugar and emotional eating differently
- What’s actually changed in my life since healing from both
If you’re stuck in that cycle and don’t know how to break it — I hope this helps.
