Lianne Murphy
From humble beginnings, Lianne Murphy has worked hard to achieve great success in her career as a lawyer and as a professional businesswoman. Lianne always believed that achieving her goals would bring happiness, but, having exceeded even her own expectations, she recognised that she still had a limited sense of satisfaction and happiness. When her mother astonished her oncology team by living well and with great contentment for years, despite having been diagnosed with a terminal illness and a six-month life expectancy purely as a result of focused change to her diet and lifestyle, Lianne started to explore the concept of holistic health, wellbeing, and happiness in earnest. This made her wonder: what if we applied this kind of focus to our wellbeing before we became sick? What if wellness and contentment were the goals rather than chasing success and achievement? What if we started living in happiness right now rather than making it conditional upon some other life event? A deep dive of exploration into wellness followed. Lianne emerged years later with a true understanding of how to create a healthy balance in life and how to achieve a deep and lasting sense of satisfaction. From a desire to share what she had learned to help others, this book was born.
