What if the life you’ve planned is only the beginning of who you’re truly meant to become? In this powerful episode, Lucy Henshall shares how a health crisis steered her from a conventional career as a GP onto a path of purpose, freedom and self-discovery. Guided by intuition and courage, Lucy now empowers others to embrace change and live authentically. From cycling across Cuba to mentoring fellow doctors, her story is a call to trust the unknown, embrace vulnerability as a strength and what it means to Be Brave, Be Bold, Be You.
KEY TAKEAWAY
‘Be Brave, Be Bold, Be You. It’s an invitation to live and to live fully and richly and go for it because you cannot get it wrong.’

ABOUT LUCY
Lucy’s GP career was defined by her love of people. She thrived on the human interactions and shared problem-solving with her patients. She intended to practice into her 60s, but shortly after her 50th birthday, a life-changing experience derailed everything. Lucy’s second career grew from the ashes of her first - and for the last 8 years Lucy has supported other GPs who seek to resume work after unexpected time out. In 2018 she founded www.welcomebacktowork.co.uk and she is now a respected expert, leader and speaker in this field. Having found her Ikigai, Lucy is now thriving and loving life.
