Unmasked

MOST AUSTRALIANS KNOW TURIA PITT, whether via the media or her first book, Everything to Live For. We know that she was badly burned in a bushfire in 2011; that her recovery was torturous.

We’ve glimpsed the profound love of her fiancé, Michael. But now, for the first time, those closest to Turia reveal how two fateful minutes in a Kimberley gorge irrevocably changed their lives, too, and reflect on the essence of this remarkable Australian.

How and why does Turia push herself to ever greater physical and mental limits?

What does she see when she looks in the mirror? What lessons has she learned?

And, crucially, how can each of us take those lessons and apply them to our own lives?

Against the backdrop of a series of remarkable achievements, including founding her goal-getting School of Champions, walking the Kokoda Track and competing in not one but two Ironman competitions, Unmasked reveals the woman behind the headlines, and uncovers the grace, humour and inner steel that gets Turia Pitt through every day – and leaves the rest of us watching in amazement.
