Jess Herraman was excited to spread her wings after school finished, but like so many Territory kids - there’s simply no place like home.

A mum of three girls, a former flight attendant who travelled the world, and now a successful businesswoman, Jess sits down with us to discuss how the picture motherhood in your head usually doesn’t often live up to reality, especially when it comes to the Christmas tree.

She also shares the impact of recently losing her dad, and how the major goal of completing an Olympic length triathlon in the months after he passed kept her grounded, and helped keep the pieces together when grief threatened to swallow her whole.

And this is all while also recovering from major heart surgery.
