Her Spirit 50:50 What is Possible Podcast
Welcome to a brand new season of the Her Spirit Podcast hosted by Her Spirit Co-Founders Holly Woodford and Mel Berry and powered by Activ.AI
Her Spirit 50:50 What Is Possible is the podcast that doesn’t hold back. We’re here to expose the hard truths and tackle the global women’s health gap head-on!
We’re talking to the movers and shakers in health, tech, business, politics, and sport to ask:
- Why is the gender gap stealing women’s health and well-being?
- Why are women’s health, sports, and physical activity always left out of the funding conversation?
- And most importantly, what could this world achieve if women finally got their fair share?
Together, we’re tearing down barriers, shaking up the status quo, and exploring the bold steps it’ll take to level the playing field for women and girls everywhere.
So, buckle up—it’s time to make the impossible... possible.

Her Spirit 50:50 What is Possible Podcast
Motivational speaker and amputee Victoria Milligan talks openly to Annie and Louise about her accident in 2013 where she lost her husband, daughter and a leg in a speedboat accident.
In the fourth episode of season three of the Her Spirit podcast BBC Breakfast Louise Minchin and BBC Triathlon presenter Annie Emmerson talk to motivational speaker and amputee Victoria Milligan.
Victoria Milligan, lost her husband Nicko, an executive at Sky, and Emily, 8, when they were thrown from their speedboat doing a sharp turn off Padstow during a sunny bank holiday weekend in May 2013. The empty boat, stuck going in circles, struck them.
Victoria lost her left leg while her three surviving children - Kit, then 4, Olivia, 10, and Amber, 12 - were also injured by the engine's propeller.
Ever since the tragedy, Victoria has been a tireless charity fundraiser. Over the years she has raised more than £1 million for good causes including £500,000 for the Cornwall Air Ambulance.
Victoria experienced devastating loss and huge challenges in her life through which she has learnt the incredible strength of the human spirit. She truly believes that we can all cope with anything that life throws at us, big or small. In fact she believes that we can become even better than we were before and appreciate life in a different way.
Victoria talks openly to Annie and Louise about the accident, life without Nicko and Emily and the importance of being active for her recovery and how a healthy body means a healthy mind.
