  • Dr Lina Safro

    Welcome to today's podcast where we have the pleasure of speaking with Dr Lina Safro. Lina's journey to Australia began in the 70s, when she arrived from the Soviet Union, a time when Russia was experiencing a severe food shortage. In exchange for American grain, the United States and Soviet Union agreed to release Russian Jews, and this was the opportunity that brought Lina to Australia.

    Since then, Lina has had a remarkable journey, starting as a medical practitioner, producing a medical documentary at SBS, and becoming a leading researcher of women’s health, all while raising six children. Her wealth of experience and knowledge in various fields makes her an incredible role model for anyone looking to achieve success in their lives.

    During our podcast, Lina shares her advice for success, which includes doing everything and not being scared, pursuing personal interests, surrounding yourself with beauty, having a good romantic relationship, providing for yourself, and having a profession that someone will pay for. Lina emphasizes that children are all unique individuals and should be treated based on their individual needs rather than being treated the same.

    Join us as we delve deeper into Lina's journey, her insights into achieving success, and her valuable advice for anyone looking to succeed in life.
