They discuss the power of stories, and the escapism it brings. Including, Anita’s book ‘Growing up Aboriginal in Australia’. And what led Anita to totally rewrote her memoir, ‘Am I Black Enough For You?’ 10 years after it was originally published in 2011.  Anita also shares how she, too, has battled with imposter syndrome and finding confidence.
