'A Currawong Somersault' provides a snapshot of busy inner-city living in Melbourne, highlighting over the course of one year what makes the cultural capital iconic - football, coffee, food and the arts and entertainment scene.
We journey through Heather's country childhood experiences and the move to Melbourne with her husband, where she embraces an exciting singing career and becomes a personal fitness trainer and life coach.
Her world instantly shrinks after receiving a back injury and when suddenly in 2020,
Covid -19 strikes, retracts even further.
Lockdown in inner-city Melbourne, opens up a chance for Heather to explore what's important in life and where happiness is found.
A new world of nature opens around her and gives motivation to create change in her life, finding contentment in the smallest of things.
It's a heartfelt conversation, filled with humorous stories, illustrations and recipes. Part diary of an intriguing life journey, part recipe for finding happiness and part guide to create change in your own life.
Her battle to overcome pain brings an inspiring, insightful and uplifting message -
where the simple action of a bird changes her world for the better.
