Hi, I’m Betty! My journey has been anything but ordinary. You might recognise me from the BBC’s Race Across the World, where I embraced the chaos, the challenges, and the beauty of stepping way out of my comfort zone. But what truly defines me isn’t just the show, it’s my passion for sharing my story, my highs and lows, and my journey with MRKH (Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome).
Talking about MRKH wasn’t easy at first, it’s such a personal part of who I am but I realised that by being vulnerable, I could connect with others and spark conversations that matter. It’s been humbling to hear from women who’ve said my story has helped them feel less alone. That’s what drives me – to use my voice to empower and uplift others. That’s what also drove me to Flamingo Chicks, as it is a charity which champions those who otherwise might feel isolated, and misunderstood. Flamingo Chicks provides that safe, nurturing space to all the Chicks and team members.
Outside of that, I’m just someone who loves living life to the fullest. I’m into health and fitness (though I won’t pretend I don’t love pizza just as much), traveling to new places, dancing my heart out at music festivals, and discovering hidden foodie gems.
