In this episode, Donna shares her incredible story; from losing her baby brother when he was just 3 months old and its resulting impact on her entire family, suffering for 4 decades with poor mental health, her decision not to have children, and the realisation that she has ultimate control of her journey, and taking steps to live a life that gives her an overall sense of happiness.

We’re thrilled that Miranda had the opportunity to interview her amazing daughter, Milan Cain and talk specifically about her experiences; coming out, the continuing journey, the trials and tribulations, the personal transformation and the ultimate sense of freedom.

In this episode, our guest Erica Farmer opens up about being diagnosed with hyperactivity at the age of 5, her parent's divorce, living life with fibromyalgia, and how going from the corporate world - where she was constantly told she was 'too much' - to starting her own business, Quantum Rise, and finding her 'people' has had an incredibly positive impact on both her mental and physical, well-being.

We’ve flipped the script with this episode of Unwrapped… the interviewer becomes the interviewee!
 
Today, our MD, Miranda, speaks candidly about her life experience; being abandoned as a baby, as a child in the care system, being adopted by white folks, growing up in an area where no one looked like her, racism, and the resulting journey of self-discovery and ultimately acceptance, the need to hold herself and others to account as part of the journey of healing, and the life-changing decisions she made, as a result.
 
It’s a no holds barred episode, including some strong language, but offers real and raw insight into her human experience… which, for anyone who knows her, is nothing less than you’d expect! And also goes to show, it’s never too late…

In this episode, Loti Nambombe shares his remarkable childhood journey; starting life in Angola, moving to Belgium as a small child, then to London, before settling in Manchester, his sadly routine experience of racism, his ongoing journey in regards to his mental health, the responsibility of being a role model, of raising mixed-race children and the honour of being an ambassador for NIKE.

He is without doubt one of the most positive, driven and inspirational people we’ve had the pleasure of meeting and interviewing. He really is a beacon of positivity and light for future generations!

In this episode, Jordan Wilson shares his ongoing battle with Bipolar Disorder, a gambling addiction, navigating the impact of putting too much importance on the opinions of others, and his decision to take ultimate control over his life by creating STIGMA; a clothing brand that truly celebrates people's differences and proves that you can create something genuinely amazing if you really put your mind to it!

*Warning contains strong language*

In this episode, our inspirational guest, Emma Tomes, talks about her life: Becoming a Mum in her teens, the ongoing journey of living with anxiety and loneliness, when redundancy feels like much more than “losing a job”, the impact on her and her family of suicide and her resulting drive to support others through similar experiences. And her recent discovery that… it really is okay to just be yourself!
