2023 EP471 Finding Courage in Times of Uncertainty with Amanda Heal

On this episode of Talking with the Experts, host Rose Davidson interviews Amanda Heel, a blind resilience expert. Amanda shares her remarkable life story, from surviving being born prematurely to becoming blind due to oxygen damage. Despite these challenges, Amanda has achieved outstanding academic and personal accomplishments, including graduating with honours in law and conquering her fear of independent travel. Amanda shares her "focus formula" for overcoming challenges and transforming from fear to control in this insightful episode. She emphasizes taking action, prioritizing self-care, and cultivating a positive mindset.

Amanda is a resilience expert with an extraordinary life story. She survived being born 14 weeks premature in the 70s when such tiny babies were not deemed viable. She was so small her father could hold her in his hand. The oxygen which kept her alive at birth damaged her eyes, leaving her blind. Despite this, Amanda has continued to surprise people with her professional and personal achievements. After graduating with honours in law from the Australian National University, she embarked on a 17-year legal career. In her spare time, she climbed to an altitude of 10,000 feet in Nepal and conquered her phobia of getting lost to travel independently both within Australia and overseas. In her keynote talks, Amanda shares her five keys to increasing resilience by building courage. When not speaking, she is a podcaster and author of multiple books, the latest being Seeing By Vision, Not By Sight.
