In 2011, Turia Pitt was competing in an ultramarathon through Western Australia's Kimberley region, when she was trapped in a bushfire. She suffered burns to 65 percent of her body.
Turia defied doctors’ expectations to not only survive but to thrive. Today she is a best-selling author, podcaster, motivational speaker and mum.
She sits down with Jamila Rizvi to talk about how her accident set her on a new path of success, rehabilitation, building a family and how she’s beaten her crippling fear of public speaking.
