Zephnè Weston - Functional Neurological Disorder Awareness
Zephnè Weston was diagnosed with Functional Neurological Disorder as a result of placing too much stress on herself in order to achieve more and reach higher levels of success.
Since recovering, Zephnè has been doing all she can to raise awareness of this condition and preach the message that our health and wellbeing should always come first before any concerns about career milestones. This week, Zephnè joins Liezl to talk about her story and why self-love and self-acceptance are more valuable than anything else in life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The experiences of our youth can shape the levels of drive and ambition we have as an adult. The pains of youth can directly influence the pleasures of maturity.
- Workaholism is often carried a badge of honour. As an attribute, we hold it up as an example of our worth, believing that it is somehow connected with our value.
- At the first sign of disorder with our bodies, we must seek advice and guidance from a professional. Even minor symptoms can be the signifier of a more deep-rooted issue.
- If you struggle with anxiety, which many people do, then we must recognise that it isn't why we were put on this earth. We are not meant to live in an anxious way.
BEST MOMENTS
'I've always been a free-spirited child'
'My body could not deal with what was going on'
'I wanted to do more. I wanted to see more'
'FND is real!'

ABOUT THE PODCAST
In the Spotlight was born as a platform to share, broadcast and promote the interesting, wonderful and inspiring things that some of the people who crossed Liezl’s path have done. She would love to shine the spotlight on them and share their journeys with you to hopefully inspire you to be the best you, not to give up and to follow your passion or dream. And in that way, help to make a little difference and share some of the beauty of this world.
