Podcasts by Conversations with Lisa
After losing her husband in 2019, then navigating her own grief (and that of her three young children) through Melbourne's endless lockdowns, Lisa was certain 2023 would be her year.
But life had other plans... some health issues with complications, business burn out and a freshly broken heart, Lisa started questions 'is this really it?'And, of course, it's not. So Lisa is doing something radical.
She's packing up her life, and her three kids, and heading on an overseas adventure. Join Lisa Corduff, as she takes Conversations with Lisa on the road, to find her spark again and figure out if there's a different/better way to live in this new world.
