Ever found yourself asking “How the hell did I get here?”- and not in a cute, soul-searching way, but standing in a laundry with a bucket of nappies, no plan, and a fireball of rage inside?

In this episode of Bounce Back Better, Hilary Saxton talks with Di Russell- aka Di Live- about the breakdown that became her breakthrough. At just 22, Di lost her husband, was raising two babies on her own, and hit rock bottom with a thud. But it was in that moment- hands on hips, yelling at the universe—that she heard the words that changed everything:

👉 “What do you want?”

 

What followed was a 30-year journey through self-help, shelf-help, and eventually, a deep transformation guided by none other than Bob Proctor. Today, Di helps others rewrite their stories with her co-creation framework, and this chat is your front-row seat to her wild, raw, and beautifully honest bounce-back story.

✨ The real reason affirmations and vision boards don’t work
✨ Why self-awareness is your greatest power
✨ How to stop doing the do and start living on purpose
✨ The truth about personal development that no one tells you
✨ Why you're not broken- you're just running old programming
✨ And what to do when you’re ready to stop waiting for your life to begin

This isn’t just another motivational story. It’s a wake-up call. And it might be yours, too.
