While competing in a 100km ultra marathon in the Australian outback in 2011, I encountered an out of control grassfire. Trapped by the flames, I suffered burns to 65% of my body.
Surviving against overwhelming odds, I’ve rebuilt my life and defied every expectation placed on me. I’m living proof that, with the right mindset, we truly can achieve anything.
See how organisations have worked with Turia to transform challenges into opportunities and build stronger, more resilient teams.
Turia’s involvement translated into more than 5 times the media coverage of a typical event. Plus, tripled usual domestic audience and secured $2.3 million in additional Australian media alone.
In 2019, Turia partnered with Kathmandu as the Ambassador the Kathmandu Coast to Coast event. Her promotion of the event on her channels had a combined reach of 2.7 million.
Turia’s involvement in the ‘Made of incredible stuff’ campaign amplified the brand and facilitated a halo effect on the Super Nature brand.
Unlearn the rules that are breaking you
A book for the people-pleasers, the perfectionists, the overthinkers (aka you).
In Selfish, I flip the script on sacrifice, guilt, and burnout. With honesty and humour (you know it’s true!) I explore the cost of being selfless… and what happens when we finally put ourselves first.
This is not a book about having it all (gross). It’s simply about having yourself. If you’re resentful, burned out, sick of people pleasing or pissed off?
