My guest today is one of those people that you read about and go – is that really possible? Lisa Tamati  is an extreme ultra endurance athlete  with a 25 year history of competing in the world's toughest endurance events and leading and participating in expeditions.

She is the author of three best selling books, one of which tells the one in a million comeback story of bringing her mother back from the brink of death after a major aneurysm left her with massive brain damage at the age of 74.

Lisa is also a podcaster, an international Speaker, running coach and provider of Workplace Wellness programs.

In the episode we discuss things such as a performance mindset, overcoming fears and setbacks and breaking personal limits. We then do a deep dive into Lisa's toughest journey of all - battling medical professionals to get her mother proper treatment and then taking control of her recovery and defying medical odds to bring her back to pretty much full health when doctors had written her off.
