About this episode
Kelly Johnson lives a purposeful life running a heartfelt food-waste enterprise from her houseboat on the Murray River. But the road here has been anything but smooth. As a mum to identical twins with autism and a youngest son who survived BECAUSE of a medical mistake, Kelly's early motherhood years were filled with illness, and deep exhaustion… including one incredibly dark moment she's bravely chosen to share. Through every challenge, Kelly rebuilt, adapted, and found strength. Now, that same determination powers her mission to turn unwanted produce into wholesome meals that give back to farmers. This is her story. This episode briefly discusses mental health and dark thoughts. If you or someone you know needs support, please contact Lifeline on 13 11 14.
