This week, we’re revisiting a truly special conversation with the wonderful Donna Ashworth—a poet whose words have offered comfort, hope, and inspiration to so many. In just four years, she has gone from self-publishing her first book to becoming one of the UK’s bestselling poets, amassing a devoted following of nearly half a million readers and topping the Sunday Times bestseller list.
In this episode, Donna shares the remarkable story of how she rebuilt her life after losing her family business, turning a lifelong passion for writing into an unexpected career. She reflects on the pivotal moments that led her to self-publish, the unwavering support of her online followers, and the deeply personal themes woven through her work—from navigating grief and mental health, to the magic of finding joy in the everyday.
Now, she’s just released her seventh book, featuring 70 brand-new poems that add even more depth and beauty to her ever-growing anthology. You can get your copy here!
