Talking Point: Impossible Is Possible

Oct 03, 2024

What’s the impossible that was made possible for you?

Ever wondered how a childhood trauma shapes your life?

In this episode of Talking Point, I explore how the impossible becomes possible through the power of technology, human resilience, and service.

We begin with Angela Peak, a nurse turned self-care coach, who helps exhausted healthcare professionals rediscover their energy and well-being. Her story exemplifies how personal transformation is possible even in the face of overwhelming challenges.

Next, David Beard, Head of Technology at British Wireless for the Blind, shares insights into the organisation’s vital work. For nearly a century, British Wireless has used radio technology to connect and comfort those living with sight loss, offering a lifeline against isolation. David discusses how radio’s relevance continues to evolve in the digital age.

We also meet Martin Rhodes, who reflects on the joys of HAM radio, a timeless hobby that continues to inspire communication across the globe made possible by screen reading technology.  

In addition to these guest appearances, I explore other remarkable stories of human determination and technological innovation, leaving you rethinking what’s possible in your own life.

Among these stories is Eo Davies, a woman with cerebral palsy, who has accomplished the remarkable feats of driving a car, riding a bike, and even sailing a boat—proving that determination can conquer any barrier.

Jenny Tate also shares her journey of how Dragon Naturally Speaking technology made it possible for her to complete her honours degree with the Open University, despite facing challenges that once seemed insurmountable.

  • Angela's kindness, compassion, and overall selflessness combined wth her upmost professionalism and unique coaching style captured my interest from my first discovery session. 
Angela was the missing piece of the puzzle in my life that I never knew existed until I started my sessions. The most powerful aspect of the coaching for me, was that I didn't need to change, that I had the ability to be the best version of myself by tapping into the power types that were already a part of me. I wouldn't be the best version of myself today without Angela's support and guidance, and for that I will always be truly grateful.

  • My coaching sessions with Angela have enabled me to make some very hard personal changes I needed to make. She created the space I need to transform, by listening and challenging me, to push through m own limitations. Her energy and presence are magical.

  • Working with Angela as my coach has exceeded all my expectations. I have to admit I was a little sceptical at first but within a few weeks we had covered areas in my life that I had tried and failed to address previously. Angela helped me find answers to the barriers I had built up, she is so easy to talk to, a great listener and most importantly, non-judgemental. With Angela's help, I was able to look at things differently and develop skills I never thought I could. With these skills, I realise what's important to me and I now know I can achieve the changes in my life. Working with Angela was one of the best decisions I have ever made and I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me see things differently.
