Acceptance: Lois Pryce and Yasmin Khan

Available for over a year

Travel writer Lois Pryce was hit by a crippling post-viral fatigue after getting Covid in March 2020. She went from somebody who solo motorcycled around the world to somebody who couldn't walk to the corner shop. A big turning point in her recovery was when she realised she couldn't fight it - she had to accept it. Today she talks about this idea of acceptance with author and human rights activist Yasmin Khan, who was diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome after suffering a debilitating burnout in 2011.
