An intelligent, independent successful woman used to solo travel decided on a business trip to take a hike.
Something that Winnie had done many times before. It was the middle of the afternoon. She was prepared.  Later she would ask so many questions... What if I'd left 5 minutes earlier? What if it had rained? What if I had decided not to go at all. You only ask yourself these questions when something goes wrong. That day Winnie's paths crossed with a violent teenager and from that moment her life would never be the same again. 
​
Being a rape survivor. Winnie had to rebuild her life. She is now an advocate for survivors of sexual assault, and has written a book based on her experience, even writing an imagined history of her attacker. 

This is Winnie... This Is Strong.

17 - This Is Winnie

Nia's role at the hospital focuses on keeping her area running smoothly on a day to day basis. Then we learnt that a virus was coming.

Suddenly everything changed. How do you manage a hospital department in the face of such uncertainty? How can you prepare?

​Whilst many of us stayed home and managed our life from our houses, homeschooling and working. Nia had to keep going into the hospital. Working tirelessly to ensure as many people as possible could be treated safely. 
Nia had to face enormous uncertainty at work, and then she had to worry about bringing the virus home. This is Nia. This is Strong.
