Sheila Naughton is a 26 year old broadcast journalist and radio presenter. She has a degree in drama and theatre studies from Trinity and is currently doing her masters in Politics and International Relations.
But outside of this Sheila is a Mental Health advocate and ambassador for See Change all because she is in recovery from anorexia. It took over her life about 4 years ago after struggling since the age of 7 and after a few hospital stays and lots of work to overcome the little voice she calls ‘Janine’ she is finally seeing that life is better when that voice gets quieter.
