Triple Olympian Lisa Curry was the golden girl of swimming through the 1980s after she was spotted by Dawn Fraser’s coach at age 10.
With her fairytale marriage to ironman Grant Kenny and the arrival of three golden-haired children, Lisa has been a magazine favourite for decades.
Lisa has led a full and rich life – reinventing herself as a champion outrigger coach, chair of the Australia Day Council and fitness entrepreneur.
But behind the scenes, for 18 years, Lisa was battling a crisis that threatened the life of her eldest child.
As Lisa approaches 60, she reflects on the joy of family, heart-wrenching loss and the power of new beginnings.
