Surviving a Volcano Eruption With Tour Guide, Kelsey Waghorn
Listen now
Description
Kelsey Waghorn's life changed forever when she, along with so many others, was caught up in the horrific Whakaari White Island eruption off the east coast of New Zealand in 2019. Kelsey, just 25 at the time, was working as a tour guide. On what should have been a regular, routine day, instead she ended up in an induced coma and sustained full thickness burns to 45% of her body.  She speaks to Ant about the toll this had on her physical and mental health, her journey with PTSD and the loss of a very close friend.  CW: This episode contains discussions of PTSD.
