Louise Hawkins was born with one arm and was immediately rejected by her father. It spawned a shame that drove her to great lengths to try to hide her disability.
At her lowest, Louise wanted to end it all. But with the help of Ant’s book ‘The Fear Bubble’ and a supportive fitness community, she finally found her way to self-confidence and is now thriving as an adaptive athlete and motivational speaker.
This episode contains discussions of suicide and mental ill-health. If this episode raises any issues for you, help is available from Lifeline on 13 11 14 or Beyond Blue on 1300 22 4636.
