<description>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.

At the age of just 30 Chandra's doctor told her she had MS, and her life would never be the same.
Living with a progressive disease has tested Chandra's resilience. She lives with never knowing fully what is coming next. 
Five years on she explains how she is coping and what she does to keep herself positive. 
One day she was walking and saw her reflection in a shop window and she didn't like what she saw. A line of poetry popped in her head about her MS. She went home and wrote a poem. Told very few people about it. During lockdown she found the time to put that poem to images and shared it online. Her secret was out and she was finally ready to talk publicly about her illness.

This is Chandra. This is Strong.
