About This Podcast
“In October 2021 I was re-learning how to walk and in December 2022 I was learning how to run 21km”
Join host Talia Lazarus as she shares powerful life stories, exploring the power of resilience and perseverance as life is turned upside down, and everything you know is taken away and lost.
Sometimes, we are confronted with unexpected challenges and moments that defeat us. It’s during these dark times and rock bottom we question everything and lose who we are. But the human spirit possesses an immense strength that allows us to rise above the darkest moments and find the courage to rebuild our lives in unexpected and extraordinary ways.
You are not alone. Leap into the deep end with us and head straight into the things that scare you most. That step out of your comfort zone is one of the best steps you'll ever take.
