Manage episode 315447041 series 3251631
Dr Rebecca Williams Dinsdale joins Sarah Reddan to share her experience of managing chronic health conditions and how she is lives a joyful life. She shares how she has had severe illness for more than decades and despite spending 12-40 weeks a year in bed or hospital for all of that time managed to do a degree on one-sixth time, an MA and PhD. While at University they noted her resilience and coping strategies and asked her to give motivating talks to their new students! That was a pivotal moment for Dr Rebecca as she realised she had something useful to offer after being told my medical consultants that she was unemployable! She was determined to try to make a contribution in some way and being self-employed was the only way! For the last decade she has worked as a Celebrant, Speaker and Coach and taken almost a thousand loving funeral services and says it was the greatest privilege to take care of people during their most demanding days and used all of the experiences of illness and disability to help them.
