Episode description

Losing a parent, watching your kid suffer, or battling a serious illness yourself – the personal adversity many of the country’s top leaders have been through will surprise you. 

Just because you’re dodging curveballs in your work life, doesn’t mean you’re immune to crises in your personal life. 

But you know what? The Kate Morrises, Andrew Starks and Briony Scotts of the world dig deep and strategise their way through personal adversity the same way they would in their careers. 

And not only have they come out the other side stronger - in many cases, they’ve gained a perspective that’s changed the way they live and lead. 

+++
