Addiction Brought Him to His Knees — Now He Helps Others Recover | Gav’s Story

The Holocaust Memoir She Couldn’t Open For Years| Noemie's Story

In this episode of Everyone Has A Story, I’m joined by Noemie, who made a remarkable transition from working as a doctor to dedicating her life to Holocaust education. Noemie takes us back to her childhood—losing her father at just 12 years old and moving to England at 13. The memoir her father had written shortly after the Holocaust was always there, a quiet presence in her life. She knew it existed, but for years, she wasn’t ready to open it. When she finally did, everything changed. That moment set her on a path she never expected—translating her father’s deeply personal account and dedicating her life to ensuring that stories like his are never forgotten. In our conversation, we explore grief, timing, and what it means to confront the past, as well as the importance of Holocaust education today—especially in a world where Anti-Semitism is on the rise. This episode is a powerful reminder that behind history are real people, real families, and stories that continue to shape generations. 🤝 Sponsors Of This Episode Fusion Funding — Whether you’re acquiring, refinancing, or growing your property portfolio, Fusion Funding provides  tailored property financing solutions—covering everything from commercial to residential portfolios, development projects and bridging finance. 📧 alex@fusionfunding.org.uk 📱 +44 7742 465491 🎙 If you’re enjoying the podcast, don’t forget to follow, share the episode with your friends and family, and leave a comment — I’d love to hear your thoughts.

She Lost Her Sister—Now She’s Speaking Out So Others Don’t Suffer In Silence | Avital’s Story

Content note: This episode discusses suicide, mental health and grief, which some listeners may find sensitive. I sat down with Avital for a deeply personal conversation about mental health, grief, and the loss of her beloved sister, Michal, who tragically took her own life at just 25 years old. This is an honest and emotional episode about the realities of suicide loss, the impact it leaves behind, and why we need to start having the conversations so many people avoid. Too many people suffer in silence, afraid of being judged. This episode is about helping to change that. It is about creating space for honesty, reducing shame and breaking down stigma. If this episode helps even one person feel less alone or encourages someone to reach out, then it matters. I am truly grateful to Avital for trusting me to tell Michal’s story, and I am in awe of her strength. Her vulnerability, I believe, will do so much to break down stigma and support others who may be in the depths of these struggles themselves. 🤝 Sponsors of this episode The Helpline — a 24/7, completely anonymous listening service, open to anyone of any age.

He Fell 75 Feet Off A Cliff-And Didn't Break A Single Bone | Duddy's Story

Duddy fell 75 feet off a cliff  — and against all expectations, he didn’t break a single bone. When paramedics arrived, they believed he had suffered catastrophic injuries. Duddy was placed into a coma and while his life hung in the balance, doctors feared he would be left with serious brain damage. Today, Duddy is here, living with no visible sign of what he endured. But his survival didn’t just change his life. In the midst of that crisis, his family founded FIG — a grassroots organisation supporting families facing the unimaginable, offering help when it’s needed most. This is a conversation about miracles, the unexplainable and what can emerge from life’s darkest moments. * If you feel you could benefit from FIG’s services, you can call, text, or WhatsApp at any time on 07360 139030• 🤝 Sponsors Of This Episode: Rigwell Trading — Specialists in moving end-of-line stock across a large network of buyers. 📧 info@rigwelltrading.co.uk 🎙 If you’re enjoying the podcast, don’t forget to follow, share the episode with your friends and family and leave a comment — I’d love to hear your thoughts.

What is 'Everyone Has A Story?'

Stories can inspire, comfort, shift your perspective, or simply offer a moment of escape at the end of a long day. In this trailer, I share what inspired me to finally bring this podcast to life. I can’t wait to go on this journey with you.
