Nigel Latta on Shocking Cancer Diagnosis, Outliving 6-12 Months' Life Expectancy, Managing Adversity

Nigel Latta, New Zealand’s best-known psychologist, shared a video to Facebook on the evening of September 5, 2024, announcing he has been living with cancer.

After sharing his shocking news, he received an outpouring of love and media articles because we all feel like we know Nigel Latta- even Lordes mum left a comment giving Nigel credit for how she raised her kids!

For the past 15 years, Nigel has been responsible for some wildly successful TV projects including the Beyond the Darkland’s series (which I loved) and the politically incorrect series with episodes devoted to parents, teenagers and grown-ups. He is also the author of seven best-selling books.

This is part of the Nigel Latta story with a focus on lessons he has learned since the cancer diagnosis and being forced to face his own mortality.
