In this Mini Motivation episode, host Amelia Phillips welcomes Layne Beachley back to talk about challenging childhoods – and how they shape you. Adopted as a baby, and very sadly losing her adoptive mother to a brain haemorrhage at age seven, Layne has overcome significant challenges to achieve her dreams and live her purpose, and she believes you can too.

Whether you have your own scars or are the mother of a child going through a tough time, we want this discussion to be a message of hope.
