Last year ABC's Australian Story approached me about doing a story.
I was very nervous about opening myself up to that sort of public scrutiny but after thinking about it decided that it was a good way for people to see past the highly manicured 'Instagram life' that many of us are guilty of portraying through our social media accounts.
I'm very appreciative of the time that Em, my family, including my grandfather in Zimbabwe, and friends gave up to be interviewed and add to the story.
