Sometimes it takes someone outside of your immediate circle to show you what you need at a certain point in time.

What she didn’t anticipate was that on top of that, she would gain was a renewed perspective on dealing with uncertainty and growing resilience, and the confidence to be just that little bit braver in her endeavours.
