Manage episode 389111375 series 3425528
Natalie shares her story about the experiences she had that enabled her to create her resilience tools and shares several of them with us. As a young woman she experienced the heartbreak of drought in the outback when suffering stock were lost or had to be destroyed. Drought was the first of the three D’s that led to working in animal welfare. Her second challenge was divorce, and she believes not coping with the stress contributed to the third D – disease when she developed breast cancer. Exploring the link between stress and disease led to her current path, answering the question ‘How do other people make the pain go away?’ And then to writing books sharing their stories of how they do it.
