County Durham mum who 'lost herself' after tragic baby loss launches business to help others

A mum from County Durham who was so anxious her hair started falling out has opened up about how she used her past traumas to help others through her new business.

After going through IVF, Sarah Jane Phelps, 44, from Witton-le-Wear said she "lost herself" following a dark period in her life when she lost her baby boy and struggled with the breakdown of her marriage. She began suffering from anxiety and started losing weight as well as hallucinating.
