IN ISOLATION: Turia Pitt

G’day! It’s Thursday! Hooray! Today on the show, we bring you the remarkable Turia Pitt. Turia is an author, mining engineer, athlete, and motivational speaker. In 2011, she was caught in a grassfire while running an ultramarathon, suffering severe burns to 65 per cent of her body as a result. In the almost decade since, Turia is now one of Australia’s most inspiring voices. In this chat, we ask Turia exactly how she responds to her inner critic, as well as whether there’s pressure that comes with being such a leading voice on resilience at a time like this.
