I wanted to dedicate some of the podcasts in this series to a very important issue that needs raising awareness on it, and that is fostering. So you will find over the next coming weeks that I will be interviewing foster parents and they will be telling their individual life stories. But on this episode, we're gonna flip that round a bit and we meet Sianne who was actually fostered and have a look at her life story and her journey through the process.

They say that we only use 10% of our brain but that's actually a myth. We use 100% of our brain, the problem is, like any other part of the body, if we don't feed it, excise it or look after it, we can't unlock its true potential. On this episode of Life Stories, we meet a young mother whose life changed from one day to the next. It's her journey of how she helped heal herself with the power of the mind.

What do you do if you suffer from an illness that you can't actually see? They tend to be chronic, you're in pain all the time, you have terrible lows, and still you can't see anything wrong.There's a lot of illnesses out there like that, and we do have the tendency as humans to judge by what we see and what we hear. On this episode we meet Pia, someone who's going through just that, and it's a stark reminder of that age old lesson, "never judge a book by its cover".
