As we mark the 10th anniversary of the tragic Lindt Cafe Siege, we sit down with survivor Louisa Hope for an emotional and insightful conversation about that fateful day in December 2014. A decade later, Louisa reflects on the harrowing events, the lives lost, and the extraordinary resilience that has carried her forward.

In this special episode, Louisa shares her journey over the past ten years—from healing and advocacy to building a legacy of hope through her work in the community. We discuss how the siege shaped her perspective, the lessons she has learned about trauma and recovery, and the importance of honouring the past while looking towards the future.
