  • S21 Ep9: Defying the odds and empowering others to do the same with Ed Jackson, Broadcaster, Author and Co-founder of M2M Foundation & Lois Jackson, Coach and Co-founder of M2M
    Nov 11 2024
    What do you do when life, as you know it, shatters in an instant?

    In this episode, Holly speaks with Ed and Lois Jackson and explores the profound and life-altering journey that they have been on. Once living a dream life filled with athletic success and endless opportunities, their world was turned upside down when Ed, a former professional rugby player, suffered a catastrophic accident that left him paralyzed.


    What followed was not only a physical battle to defy the odds and regain movement but a mental and emotional transformation for both Ed and Lois. Together, they’ve faced the unimaginable, and through grit, resilience, and love, they've found a new purpose, helping others overcome adversity and reframe their mental health in the process.


    This is a raw, inspiring story of how Ed and Lois have turned a tragedy into a mission to uplift, empower, and show that even in our darkest moments, there is light, hope, and a way forward. This conversation will challenge you to rethink what it means to face hardship and how when life doesn’t go as planned, we are truly capable of much more than we know.
