The Bend Like Bamboo Resilience Show: Featuring Donna Campisi, Author, Speaker and stroke survivor.
Welcome to The Bend Like Bamboo Resilience Show. Each week, I get to interview amazing people, who will share their inspiring stories of resilience. I dive deep into wonderful DNM’s with my very special guests, exploring their stories of how they have overcome adversity in their lives, professionally and personally.
Get ready to be inspired by their stories, golden nuggets, and actionable tools that can help us all to elevate our mindset, and be bigger than our setbacks. Within every adversity is an equal or greater opportunity. My intention for these sessions is to remind us that no matter what we are going through, we can overcome it, and discover what we are made of.
It is important to feel motivated and hopeful about the future. When we are positive we can be more creative, and innovative. Seeing our obstacles as opportunities, rising above the turbulence we can feel more ready to rebuild our mind, body, and lives after what has been a massive adjustment to 2020.
Introducing Donna Campisi
Donna Campisi is a passionate woman, inspiring people around the world to turn their dreams into reality by hosting a podcast called Ready! Set! Goal! She is a Keynote Speaker, Author, Coach, Mentor and Adventurer.
Donna inspired many people with her stroke to marathon challenge; from only being able to run 30 tentative steps in 2012 (after a childhood stroke and diabetes) to completing her marathon goal in 2013, while encouraging many along the way that there’s no such thing as can’t… AND raising funds for the RCH Foundation.
Donna coaches’ people to achieve their goals and step outside their comfort zone by organising awesome adventure activities, encouraging people to face their fears in a fun and inclusive environment.
She is the author of Turn Dreams into Reality, Inspiration Bible, and The Unlikely Marathoner– proving there really is no such thing as can’t …
Her background includes business development, and mental health and disability support. Donna is qualified in Coaching, NLP Practitioner, is a Trainer and Presenter, and is an Ecommerce Consultant.
Donna’s recent project began with an idea in February 2020, to inspire people to embrace change. She brought 10 inspiring Change Influencers together who have made positive change in their life, mentoring them to share their stories and insights in their compelling chapter. This book is about inspiring readers to embrace and make that change. Donna is very proud to bring this project to life: ‘CHANGE is not a Scary Word – 10 Influencers Leading the Way.’
Donna had a stroke at age 7 that put her in intensive care and she is lucky to be alive. At age 14 she was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and has been on a journey from a very young age that has forced her to learn how to survive. In this inspiring interview, Donna said that all the ups and downs that have come in her life have taught her determination and strength. She has had to learn how to crawl and walk again, and a physiotherapist said to her in a session ‘there is no such thing as can’t. Something switched in side of Donna and this became her mantra.
In was in that moment she knew she had a choice and today, Donna has her mobility back and enjoys being an author, podcaster and blogger helping others to master change.
