She explores what drives them and how they find the resilience and determination to go on despite life's setbacks. Lizzie overcame a life-threatening illness and now paddleboards whilst cleaning up the planet with her community; Rhian set up a charity in the face of grief and fundraises through hikes; and Zee took up rugby alongside her busy nursing career and motherhood.\u003cbr\u003eLouise reminds us of the bravery inside us all, and how essential it is to celebrate women's achievements. Prepare to be touched and inspired by these fearless women.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46643200753822,"sku":"UBD-9781399401173","price":24.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781399401173.jpg?v=1774483849","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781399401173","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
