In this powerful episode, Sharon Banga and Dan  O’Keefe  of Shoosmiths sit down with Charlotte Storey — an inspiring voice reminding us that disability doesn’t define you. After sustaining a life-changing injury to her arm, Charlotte faced a choice in the words of her father : focus on the dust or reach for the stars. Charlotte is a former West End actor and professional musician turned inspirational speaker, executive coach, and one-handed pilot.

Through resilience, courage, and an unshakable belief in possibility, Charlotte turned her disability into a launching pad — not a limitation. Her story is not just about recovery, but reinvention. It’s about refusing to be boxed in by circumstance and choosing instead to create opportunity from adversity. 

Join us as we explore Charlotte’s journey — the challenges, the breakthroughs, and the mindset that drives her forward. Whether you’re facing your own obstacles or just looking for a spark of motivation, this episode will leave you inspired to rethink what’s possible.
