'Making Lives More Liveable' An Interview with Linda Jones, Founder of Salus Fatigue Foundation

In 2001, Linda Jones was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. She lost everything, her marriage, business, home and self-esteem. Bedridden, exhausted and facing the reality of having to start over, she contemplated ending her life; which wasn’t an option as she had two children to care for.

Her relentless attitude, which caused her burnout in the first place, meant she wasn’t going to just accept that diagnosis and become a statistic. Determined to recover and get her life back she took a holistic approach and coached herself back to health.

In the last 15 years, her journey to full recovery sparked a passion to help others and this idea became a charity - Salus Fatigue Foundation. To date 15, 000 people have been helped to create a self-managed path to recovery through raising awareness and support programs. Linda also heads up Life4Changing helping organisations boost employee engagement, productivity and performance.

Linda firmly believes that by sharing her story she can inspire others to create change and improve their and others' lives. We felt compelled to meet this exceptional Change Maker and discover just who is behind this charity for whcih we have the good fortune to deliver regular workshops.
