Olympian, doctor, mother of six... Jana Pittman’s list of accomplishments is mind-blowing. But, from a young age, she would look in the mirror and see a failure. 

Now, decades since she was first in the public spotlight, Jana’s learnt to 'own her flaws' and unleash her 'inner lioness' and she wants to show others how to do the same.

Guest:

Jana Pittman, world champion athlete, Olympian, doctor and author, whose new book is called Enough: Accept yourself just the way you are
