Short Black with Sandra Sully

Jelena Dokic


Listen Later

Jelena Dokic had a phenomenal tennis career. But it was what happened off the court and her decision, years later, to talk openly about the abuse she suffered at the hands of her father that has seen her constantly in the public eye.

Having been raised to be silent, Jelena found her voice six years ago and wrote her first book, Unbreakable. Since then, she has made it her mission to speak up for those who can’t. There is no denying her courage, her tenacity and her drive to open up the conversation around mental health and domestic abuse.

As her second book hits the shelves, she sits down with Sandra for an open, honest and raw conversation, in which Jelena not only shows us how our story makes us stronger, but also that she is, in fact, Fearless.
