In this episode Lucy shares the techniques she uses to deal with disasters that we can utilise within our own lives; breathing techniques, being present, embracing a healthy work/life balance. Although Lucy has witnessed some of the biggest traumas in the world she describes herself as continually positive and hopeful.
