About this episode
Meet Katrina Head, a nurse, mum of three, and…a competitive woodchopper who lives life at full throttle! By day, she coordinates Queensland's Intensive Care Clinical Network. By weekend, she's swinging axes at shows across the country alongside her husband and kids. Katrina's story starts on a farm near Dalby, where her deep bond with her dad shaped her work ethic and love for hands-on challenges. After the heartbreaking loss of her father to suicide in 2017, Katrina found solace and strength in her family, her career, and the woodchopping community. In this episode, she shares candidly about the juggle of motherhood, a demanding healthcare career, grief, and finding joy in unexpected places. Her honesty, humour, and strength shines through in our beautiful chat. Warning: This episode touches on mental health and suicide.
