As we launch Series 7 of the podcast, we sit down with Laura Hearn—a journalist, mental health advocate, truly incredible storyteller and host of the Flip It podcast. Laura’s journey is one of profound resilience: she navigated an eating disorder, family tragedy, and heartbreak that upended her life. Yet, instead of giving up, Laura found a way to “flip” every struggle into a source of growth and self-discovery.
From losing her beloved stepfather to facing an earth-shattering breakup and walking away from a 17-year career at the BBC, Laura shares how she learned to embrace vulnerability, harness the healing power of nature, and find gratitude—even in the darkest moments. Join us for a deeply heartfelt conversation about redefining success, being true to oneself, and living with an open heart.
