Tanya Dupagne has dedicated her career to supporting children and communities in need, both in Australia and around the world. As the 2017 AgriFutures Rural Woman of the Year, Tanya used her platform to launch a transformative grassroots leadership program for women in regional areas.

In this episode, Tanya shares insights on the importance of support networks, self-care, and her vision for empowering rural communities while managing chronic illness and advocating for better treatment options in Australia.
