What happens when life completely changes your direction?

In this episode of Hatched, Dustin and Jenna sit down with wellbeing expert, academic, speaker, and founder Dr Tiffany de Sousa Machado for a deeply personal conversation about loss, resilience, purpose, and what it really means to live well.

After the sudden loss of her mother, Tiffany made a life-changing decision to walk away from a successful media career and return to university at 30 to pursue the path she'd always dreamed of. What followed was a journey through personal illness, postnatal depression, entrepreneurship, leadership, and ultimately finding purpose through helping others.

This isn't just a conversation about wellbeing. It's about navigating adversity, learning from failure, asking for help, and building a life aligned with your values.
