My first book - ROCK YOUR STRIPES (published 2019) is a frank, insightful and inspirational femoir; part personal story-telling memoir, infused with feminism, lively spirted, deliberately confronting, and purposefully instructional.
From blank canvas (adopted 1960's baby) to colourful 'Change Champion', I share valuable insights gained along a zigzag pathway of daring to disrupt conservative confines and smashing the need to compare, compete, copy or conform to societal norms.
Yeah - it's that 'must write' first book; decades of lessons, changes, reflections >>> years of extracting conscious thoughts into frameworks and book concept >>> months of soul-driven strength to complete and proudly launch.
My big 'WHY write it?' To encourage more women to step up bravely, stand out boldly, speak up brilliantly, and courageously lead change ... in their lives, their communities, their country.
My challenge to you is:
“Don’t half-arse your way through life ...
choose to be your full-arse version.”
