UPBEAT offers not only hope and inspiration, but proven strategies to help you face adversity and thrive.

Beth Greenaway has faced more than her share of medical adversity. Born with a serious congenital heart condition, she has bounced back from three open-heart surgeries, a stroke which left her blind in one eye, and a life-threatening heart infection which kept her hospitalised for several months. None of this has stopped her living life to the full, competing as an endurance athlete, living overseas, running a successful business, or working as a personal trainer for others with long-term medical conditions. She would say she has achieved these things not in spite of her heart health but because of it.
