This week, Lucy is joined by Krystel Vida – a lovely lady who has a truly inspirational story. She is the epitome of thriving.
Krystel had a challenging childhood and moved to the UK from France by herself to start her life from scratch a few years ago. Shortly after finding a job, she was in a bad car crash which was the catalyst for her mental health to start spiralling down. Grieving the loss of her mum, under pressure from a new job, financial worries and now the loss of her car and impact on her job, she was signed off sick and found herself stuck on her sofa in the midst of depression, anxiety and PTSD.
Krystel describes feeling helpless and hopeless, until a passing conversation with her manager gave her a glimmer of hope. How could this calm, capable, confident lady in front of her have struggled with anxiety? It didn’t make sense! If that’s the power of this programme, Krystel thought “I’m in!”.
She found herself a coach, and just 3 weeks into The Thrive Programme, she started to feel hopeful – she knew she would be able to make her life better.
Over the coming weeks, months, Krystel started working on her mindset – training her mind, just like she was used to training her body. She started working towards her dreams.
Fast forward a couple of years, and Krystel is thriving. She is over her depression, anxiety and grief. She works in her dream job. She volunteers using her skills to help people. She competes in the boxing ring. And she’s a Ms Great Britain finalist 2025 – using her platform to share her story and empower women that strength and confidence come from the inside.
An inspirational story, but as Krystel quite rightly says, it’s just a skillset – and it’s something any of us can learn. Get in touch if you’d like to learn more.

The Thrive Programme® is mental health training that teaches people the skills and resources to overcome mental health issues and learn to thrive.
Thriving people have a skill-set that makes them more robust, resilient, and confident… they feel powerful and more in control of their lives… they are less prone to stress, anxiety or depression and they generally live longer and happier. Thriving people find it easier to resist social pressures, take more responsibility for their physical and mental health and live a more positive and active life.
The programme is evidence-based, fun to learn, and – much like riding a bike – once you’ve learned to do it, you’ll always have the skills.
It’s very easy to follow, usually takes – on average – just six weeks to complete, and is accessible to all people of all ages.
You can study the programme at home by yourself with one of our manuals (currently being translated into a number of other languages, as well as a version for the Visually Impaired), be guided through it with a specially-trained Thrive Programme Coach® (either face to face or online), or by attending one of our events or bootcamps. Either way, the results are predictable, quantifiable and long-lasting.You can read hundreds of written testimonials, find out more about our Programme, get lots of help for working through the book and even find a Thrive Programme Coach® to give you that extra insight, at our website: www.thriveprogramme.org
