Pip takes over the Mic Drop Club, with inspirational tales to help you take back control, and reset your inner algorithm by focusing on things that truly matter. As a clinician, Pip Hodgson is no stranger to drama, violence and heartache but what strikes me as unique is her humility and willingness to help others in need.
Listen as Pip recalls her journey to offer support to the people of Ukraine, the support she received along the way and the lesson learnt. Making difficult choices like leaving her job to rebalance her priorities will resonate with many who have been sitting on the fence not having the courage to take the leap of faith.
