011 Know Yourself: Finding Peace, Gratitude, and Strength with Nick Forgham

In this deeply moving episode of Made to Fly, Serena Dodd speaks with Nick Forgham - a man whose life changed after collapsing unexpectedly and facing major heart surgery.

What follows is a masterclass in resilience, gratitude, and self-awareness. Nick shares how knowing his values helped him stay calm in the face of fear, what karate has taught him about discipline and peace, and how happiness is built not from perfection, but from gratitude and giving. With warmth and wisdom, he reminds us that “knowing yourself” isn’t a destination - it’s the secret to peace, courage, and finding joy in being enough.

About Serena Dodd
Serena Dodd isn’t here to sell you a dream life. She’s here to help you reclaim the one you already have; the one that quietly stopped feeling like yours somewhere along the way. After years in high-level corporate leadership, Serena hit the wall many driven women know too well: the life that looked perfect on paper but left her numb inside. She walked away, asked better questions, and built something truer.

Now she helps others do the same, not with hustle or hype, but with clarity, compassion, and real talk. Through coaching, workshops, and her Made to Fly podcast, Serena guides thoughtful, high-achieving women out of autopilot and back into alignment with who they really are. No glitter. Just grounded, brave change.
