Ali's story was the one that hit closest to home for me, and made me cry the most. Hearing a story so similar to my own and being able to identify certain moments in Ali's life that truly mirrored my own was confronting, but equally comforting - it made me feel as though if never walked my journey alone, I just hadn't met my fellow travellers.

I'm so grateful to Ali for sharing her story - like all of our guests, she's a tough cookie, and if Ali's words resonated with just one person and helped them understand their situation a little better or cope better, then it's worth it.
