Description
There are some strong and resilient women across rural and remote Australia, and Carol Godfrey is a wonderful example. Living and managing a large pastoral property in South West Queensland, Carol has seen it all.  One day in 2011, when she had to move 500 cattle to a neighbours property, the cattle were released (by another person) too early and headed in the wrong direction, resulting in Carol rushing to get her helicopter into the air. In her haste, she made a critical error and she was lucky to live.  Her accident has changed her perspective on life. Carol's mindset and mantra is that you can do anything that you put your mind to. And she is living proof! ***** Thanks so much for listening to the Flying Doctor Podcast. It is lovely to have you along on the journey with us.
