I’ve put together a video combining past and present moments to share my journey of living with an inoperable and benign brain tumour. This isn’t just about what I have been through, it’s also about what I am doing now. I’ve created a platform to help others Influential Stars ✨, and I need your support. Not financially, but through your expertise to help make a bigger impact. This is also a message to raise awareness that benign is not fine. Living with a brain tumour affect so many people. Far more than we often realise, and it’s time to bring those challenges to light. Please watch, share, and help spread the word 🙏 If I can make just one of my reels go viral, it would be this one ♥️ #BenignIsNotFine #BrainTumourAwareness #InvisibleIllness #MakeADifference #InfluentialStars #HelpLisa2HelpOthers https://lnkd.in/ePeR_FJW

About us
Hi, I'm Lisa Connell. In 2006, I was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour, a life-changing moment that set me on a mission. Through my own personal journey of living with a brain tumour, I have dedicated myself to raising awareness and funding for brain tumour-related causes. Now, through my platform, influentialstars.org @1nfluentialStars, and a variety of other charitable causes, I continue to make an impact. My goal is to raise as much as I can to support brain tumour-related causes, including funding crucial research and care. Alongside this, I work to shine a light on the profound impact of living with a brain tumour, a reality faced by many who often suffer in silence. Brain tumours do not discriminate; they can affect anyone, at any age or stage of life. With the unwavering support of #TeamConnell, I’m confident that together we can make a lasting difference. Whether through fundraising, advocacy, or simply spreading awareness, every step we take helps change lives and brings hope to those affected by brain tumours. But my mission doesn't stop there. Through *Influential Stars*, I’m also raising awareness and funds for a wide range of charitable causes across the UK. This includes supporting crowdfunding pages for individuals with life-limiting conditions, ensuring they receive the help and support they desperately need. My platform is about making a difference for as many people as possible, wherever it's needed most. #HelpLisa2HelpOthers

I’ve got to admit, I’m a little envious of those who can rock a pair of high heels! There was a time when I could confidently strut around in stilettos, but these days, flip-flops and trainers are my go-to for comfort. As a mum with an inoperable and currently slow-growing brain tumour, balance and coordination issues are part of my everyday life. #BrainTumourAwareness #BalanceAndCoordination #SlowGrowingTumour #MumLife #WedgesForTheWin #ComfortFirst #FlipFlopsAndTrainers #InoperableTumour #BalanceIssues #ResilienceInAdversity #BrainTumourAwareness #HealthJourney #SupportAndStrength #HelpLisa2HelpOthers #TumourHumour

When you like, comment on, or share a reel, you're doing more than just supporting a post. You're actively helping increase its visibility. The algorithm behind platforms like TikTok , Instagram and Facebook take note of these interactions. The more you engage with content, the more likely it is to be recommended to others. This creates a ripple effect, meaning that even small interactions can lead to more people seeing the message, raising awareness for causes that matter. Watching a reel all the way through is key! The algorithm favours videos that are watched to completion because it sees that content is engaging. If you’re short on time, consider speeding up the video, which some platforms allow. This ensures you still engage with the content, without missing out on key moments. By engaging with multiple reels, liking, commenting, and sharing, you’re also helping creators and causes get the exposure they need. It's a simple yet powerful way to show your support and ensure that important messages, like those supporting life-limiting illness fundraisers, reach as many people as possible. Ultimately, every interaction helps creators and charities gain visibility and traction, and this can be the difference between a campaign succeeding or falling short. Keep engaging, keep sharing, and help make a difference! #InfluentialStars #SupportCharity #BoostTheAlgorithm #ReelsEngagement #SpreadTheWord #CharityAwareness #GiveBack #HelpLisa2HelpOthers
