Real Not Perfect with Lucy Hone

We are super excited to introduce our first guest to ‘Let’s Talk The Untalked’, Dr. Lucy Hone. Lucy is the co-director and co-founder of the New Zealand Institute of Well-being & Resilience, adjunct senior fellow at the University of Canterbury, a published academic researcher and a best-selling author. We were lucky enough for her to share her wisdom around mental health especially resilience and perfectionism. She shared tips on how to deal with setbacks, the importance of speaking out, what it means to be a supportive friend or family member and shared valuable advice for putting your own well-being first. We both learnt so much from Lucy as she’s such an inspiring and authentic role model and hope you all take something from her message.

Lucy’s favourite quote comes from Mary Oliver and is featured at the start of her book, ‘What Abi Taught us’ (now selling under the new title, Resilient Grieving), which is a must read.

"What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” #realnotperfect
