Parenting, power outages & practical tools – Lacey’s story of surviving 47°C
Lacey shares what it was like to go through several days of extreme heat in Mildura – with no power, no air con, and three kids to keep cool, safe & entertained.
From battery fans to barbecues, she talks about the creative ways her family adapted, and the lessons she’s carried forward – including why preparation, education & checking in on neighbours really matter.
Whether you’ve faced heatwaves or just want to be better prepared next time, Lacey’s experience is packed with practical tips & powerful reflections. Worth a watch!
