How Lisa Booth From Booken Blend Rebuilt Her Life After Rock Bottom | Motherland Podcast

Lisa is interviewed by Australian of the Year (Tasmania), Steph Trethewey, on the Motherland Podcast.

In 2016, Lisa Booth designed and built an eco-friendly home on a tight budget, on a small block of land. A couple of years ago, after her social media exploded, she quit her job to help other families build the same dream through her business - Booken Blend.

Lisa's life looks picture-perfect on Instagram, but she is an incredibly down-to-earth and authentic woman with rural roots that have both broken her as well as pushed her to rebuild after rock bottom. 

Lisa was born on a dairy farm, grew up on the land, married very young after a whirlwind romance,  and had two young kids when the stress of farm life in the midst of a drought led to cracks in her marriage.

She eventually left her husband, and started over. It was incredibly tough, but her story has a very happy ending. In this chat, Lisa also opens up publicly for the first time about her surprising addiction that helped her cope through her toughest times on the land.

Hint- it's legal, and it's not alcohol.

This is her story.
