#62 Lissie Turner - The Prana Project. "Hold it lightly" from radio, yoga & vagina conversations to repairing rivers

For 3 years Lissie Turner was the host of drive along with Charlie Pickering as ‘Mel in the Morning’. During this time Lissie had the immense privilege of breaking bread with many of the Gods and monsters of modern music – Radiohead, REM, Mike Patton, Lou Reed, Blondie, The White Stripes and Grandmaster Flash to name but a few - and behind the scenes her love of yoga keeping her swimming during many heady years of music industry mayhem.

In 2004 Lissie created and kicked off, Like a Version. A segment that has become one of the most popular in triple j history, spawning more than a dozen compilations, enjoyed by millions and earning a place on the station’s breakfast program – where it lives happily to this day.

Becoming a Yoga Teacher first, then doing 4 years of Post Grad to become a Yoga Therapist, Lissie, along with her husband built The Yoga Shack - a yoga school that over a decade became legendary in the Byron Shire and beyond, as a place of complete acceptance

Lissie is the CEO of The Prana Project, a global initiative that connects people back to environment, using the reinvigoration of wounded landscapes as the tool to help people thrive. The Prana Project is the culmination of Lissie’s life’s work in addiction recovery, women’s health, as a vigorous environmentalist, passionate surfer, professional communicator, author, Mother and Grandmother.
