  • Summary

  • TW: This episode contains discussion of content that may be distressing to some viewers, including serious injury following a car accident, burn injury and depression.

    Today, we’ll be looking at post-traumatic growth – where people have been able to unlock newfound perspectives after suffering hardship.

    In this episode, we’re going to speak to 18-year-old Josh Forde, whose entire future was rewritten following an awful car accident just one year ago. Josh’s attitude in the months after the crash is a testament to his character and his ability to find the positives in anything.

    We’re then joined by Dr Lisa Martin from the Fiona Wood Foundation, who unpacks some of the theories about how post-traumatic growth occurs.
