Wayne Power: From Homebound to Spoken Word Star

I don't want to think I would [have overcome agoraphobia without my experiences], because I think all that stuff, all that I've gone through, has kind of made me a lot more confident.
Imagine not leaving your house for over a decade. That's the reality Wayne Power faced from 2005 to 2018 due to severe agoraphobia. In this episode of 'The Fettle Podcast', Tony Kelly sits down with Wayne to uncover his incredible journey from isolation to becoming a spoken word artist and broadcaster. Wayne's story is a rollercoaster of emotions, filled with moments of despair, hope, and ultimate triumph.
He opens up about the fear that kept him confined, the pivotal role his family and friends played in his recovery, and how finding creative outlets became his lifeline. With a blend of humor and honesty, Wayne shares the highs and lows of his path to mental health recovery, including how the recession added layers of stress to his already challenging situation. He also delves into the power of positive thinking and community support in overcoming obstacles.
If you're looking for a story that showcases the resilience of the human spirit, this episode is a must-listen. Wayne's journey is not just about overcoming agoraphobia; it's about finding light in the darkest places and transforming that light into art.
