Listen Later

What happens when you spend years surviving… and suddenly realise you’ve stopped truly living?

In this deeply honest episode of Unstoppable Women, Julie Tague sits down with Deborah McCann - founder of Clear Colours Ltd - to explore resilience, identity, hidden female struggles, motherhood, leadership and rebuilding life after prolonged challenge.

Deborah shares her experience of:

  • navigating divorce while sharing a family home
  • severe endometriosis and adenomyosis
  • balancing motherhood and professional leadership
  • redundancy and starting her own business
  • quietly functioning while emotionally and physically depleted
  • reconnecting with joy after years of survival mode

At one point, Deborah describes herself as:
“My battery was at one bar.”

Yet despite everything, she kept showing up.

This conversation is raw, reflective and full of wisdom for anyone navigating:

  • burnout
  • life transition
  • women’s health challenges
  • separation and identity shifts
  • leadership under pressure
  • rebuilding confidence and energy

But ultimately, this episode asks a bigger question:

What brings you joy?
