TEATIME WITH MISS LIZ SERVES: Helen Glanville July 7th | 7 PM EST Title
A Second Chance: Rebuilding Life Through Courage, Compassion & Hope Tagline
Sometimes the greatest act of courage is choosing compassion when the world chooses judgment. Description:
Join Miss Liz for an unforgettable conversation with Australian author, speaker, and community advocate Helen Glanville, whose extraordinary life is a testament to resilience, redemption, and rebuilding after unimaginable loss. Helen’s life changed forever when she chose to love a man whose past placed them both under intense public scrutiny. Years later, the devastating 2019 Australian bushfires destroyed the home and life she and her husband had spent over thirty years building. Rather than allowing hardship to define her, Helen transformed her lived experience into service by founding Second Chances SA, a charity supporting children and families affected by imprisonment. Her memoir, A Second Chance, shares a deeply personal story of compassion, forgiveness, and discovering hope beyond adversity. This heartfelt conversation explores what it truly means to begin again—even when life leaves you standing in the ashes. Opening: Welcome everyone to another inspiring edition of Teatime with Miss Liz, where stories become bridges of understanding and every conversation reminds us that hope is always possible. Today, we’re honoured to welcome Helen Glanville, an Australian author, speaker, and founder of Second Chances SA. Helen’s journey has been shaped by public judgment, personal heartbreak, devastating loss, and extraordinary resilience. Through every challenge, she chose compassion over bitterness and purpose over despair, creating opportunities for others to find healing and hope. Helen, thank you for joining us at the Teatime table. Closing: Today’s conversation reminded us that healing doesn’t always happen in dramatic moments—it often grows quietly through courage, compassion, and the willingness to begin again. Helen Glanville showed us that second chances aren’t about forgetting the past—they’re about allowing it to become the foundation for something meaningful. Thank you, Helen, for sharing your remarkable journey and reminding us that hope can rise even from life’s greatest losses.
