Sally Bee | Background

After the first heart attacks in 2004, Sally was filled with an all-consuming passion and desire to live and she fought for every second of her life, with the days turning to months and years. She had survived three heart attacks and she had worked on herself to replace fear with calmness. All was good in her world.

Sally’s world was again rocked in 2016 when she suffered two further heart attacks and the diagnosis of spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) – a rare heart condition that happens suddenly and without warning. Once again, Sally was full of determination to survive. She new she was meant to survive.

The following 12 months for Sally were challenging, with her once again riding the emotional roller-coaster, afraid of almost everything yet determined not to miss a thing. Having been through it before, she was able to apply what she had learned from her previous experience.

In the 12 years between the two episodes, Sally worked hard on her health and mental wellbeing. Sally has told her story across many different media platforms, has been interviewed on national tv and established herself as an international speaker.
