When life throws storms our way, we often think we’re at our breaking point. But what if the storm is the very place, we discover our truest, strongest selves?

In this episode of Message in the Middle, I sit down with Felicity Ashley, adventurer, mother of three, cancer survivor, former corporate marketer, and motivational speaker, to explore resilience, courage, and the power of saying yes to impossible dreams.

Felicity’s story is extraordinary. She set out with three other moms to row 3,000 miles across the Atlantic, facing storms, broken equipment, and relentless sleep-deprived nights. What she didn’t know was that she was rowing while living with stage 3 bowel cancer. The strength she unearthed mid-ocean would become the anchor she leaned on through diagnosis, chemotherapy, surgery, and recovery.

In this conversation, Felicity shares:
 ✨ How ordinary people can achieve extraordinary things
 ✨ The mindset shifts that transform fear into fuel
 ✨ What resilience really looks like when life changes in an instant
 ✨ The role of community, support, and daily habits in surviving and thriving
 ✨ Tactical advice for listeners navigating their own storms

Her memoir, Stronger Than the Storm, is a raw and inspiring reminder that our greatest strength often surfaces in our hardest battles.

If you’ve ever doubted your own resilience, this episode will give you hope, perspective, and practical steps to face your own challenges head-on.
