  • 101. Harry Potter stuntman David Holmes on finding purpose - and positivity - beyond paralysis

    101. Harry Potter stuntman David Holmes on finding purpose - and positivity - beyond paralysis
    2024/11/11
    On January 28th, 2009, a rehearsed stunt on set of Harry Potter went horrifically wrong. David, who for a decade was the lead stunt double for his friend Daniel Radcliffe, was left paralysed from the chest down.
    A number of long and dangerous operations followed, many of them lifesaving. David survived but his condition is degenerative - each year bringing yet more challenge for him.
    From being an elite gymnast and professional stunt double for the most famous boy in the world at the time… as someone who was defined by their physicality … David’s accident stripped of his identity.
    His story – told brilliantly in the moving documentary David Holmes: The Boy Who Lived and now in his autobiography - is more than one of survival. It is the story of someone who decided to reject bitterness about his old life to pursue a new one full of meaning and purpose.
    As David puts it: “I’m having a unique journey on this planet, and I am going to own it.”
    David is now a podcaster, producer, author … and an inspiration to all that meet him. He is speaking at Creative Folkestone Festival on 21st November. Secure your tickets now: https://www.creativefolkestone.org.uk/whats-on/david-holmes-harry-potterandrsquos-double/?book=566337
    Thank you David for sharing your remarkable perspective, positivity and wisdom.

  • 100. Magazine megastar Lindsay Nicholson’s astonishing lessons on how to cope when life unravels … again and again and again

    100. Magazine megastar Lindsay Nicholson’s astonishing lessons on how to cope when life unravels … again and again and again
    2024/10/28
    Lindsay Nicholson transformed some of our best-known magazine titles including Cosmopolitan, Prima and, most famously, Good Housekeeping. On the face of it a brilliant, glamorous and high-powered career for which she was awarded an MBE in 2018.
    But Lindsay achieved all this whilst her own life was marked with crisis, with drama and the most unimaginable grief. In 1992 Lindsay lost her first husband, the journalist John Merritt, when she was pregnant with their second child, Hope. Five years later, their nine-year-old daughter Ellie died from the same rare form of leukaemia.
    Lindsay then faced her own ten-year battle with breast cancer.
    She came through but then, in 2016, in a series of events following a near death car crash, her life unravelled. The result? The end of her second marriage, a lost home, a lost job and – for a while – a damaged reputation. A set of circumstances that truly took her to the brink.
    Lindsay’s brilliant new memoir – Perfect Bound is not only a compelling read it’s in many ways a field guide on how to cope when faced with real difficulty. In this episode she shares her astonishing story and the invaluable lessons of how to survive and thrive through the most extreme and painful experiences.

    99. Charley Boorman on severe dyslexia, loss and the motorbike crash that almost claimed his life
    2024/10/14
    You know him from his epic road trips with Ewan McGregor in Long Way Round, Down and Up but adventurer Charley Boorman’s life is full of journeys of an entirely different kind … of personal challenge, crisis and resilience.

    As a child actor Charley, the son of director John Boorman, starred in movies including The Emerald Forest but severe dyslexia got in the way. He then faced the devastating loss of his beloved sister before his own health crisis with cancer.

    Working as a builder, Charley found his true purpose and passion after becoming friends with fellow motorbike obsessive actor Ewan McGregor. Their hugely successful TV show followed, as did a series of crashes – one in 2018 that almost claimed Charley’s life.

    He continues to embrace a life of daring adventure proving that, for him, action truly is the antidote for despair.

    98. Sarah de Lagarde on surviving horror, saying ‘thank you’ to her lost limbs and a return to Kilimanjaro
    2024/09/30
    On the night of September 30, 2022, at High Barnet station, Sarah de Lagarde slipped between the train and the platform.

    Trapped there, unseen and unheard, Sarah was hit by the train as it left the station, severing her right arm. 11 minutes after she first fell, she was struck by a second tube as it entered the station, crushing her right leg.

    In the aftermath of this unimaginable accident, Sarah faced long term physical and emotional challenges. Yet, with resilience and an unyielding spirit, Sarah has embarked on a journey of recovery and of advocacy.

    She recently climbed Kilimanjaro in August to raise money for STAND, a charity that supports amputees in conflict zones and developing countries.

    Sarah’s story is one of unbelievable strength, of putting an appalling crisis to positive work for others without bitterness. An episode that tells a truly shocking story but also provides insight and learnings for us all.
