Please note: This episode touches on suicide and sexual abuse. If you need support, please contact Lifeline on 13 11 14 or Beyond Blue on 1300 22 4636.Today I sit down with entrepreneur, author and founder of Twenty8 Essentials, Kim Morrison, to explore her path from setting an unofficial world record as a teenager to a resilient leader navigating some of the darkest experiences a person can face. Kim reflects on her challenging upbringing, overcoming severe childhood abuse at the age of nine, and stepping up as a mother-figure for her siblings after her parents separated. She shares the wild story of signing up for an ultra-marathon after finding it boring to watch, being mentored by the legendary Cliff Young, and running 100 miles in under 24 hours to set an unofficial world record. Kim also reveals the creation of her wellness and aromatherapy brand Twenty8, the privilege of working alongside her adult daughter today, and why performing a simple body boost ritual every morning can change your life. This conversation is a serious but comforting reminder that the race is not always to the swift, but to those who keep on running. Enjoy!
