254 days, 12,700 kilometres, sea sickness, sharks, crocodiles and ocean. Bonnie Hancock broke numerous records on her fastest ever circumnavigation by paddle around Australia but that wasn't the achievement she is most proud of. Testing the limits of her mental and physical toughness, she learned what it means to overcome adversity and how important teamwork and perspective truly are. What looks distressing from the rocky shore or storm-tossed waves can be inspiring when you look to the heavens.

The Girl Who Touched the Stars is a love story, a travelogue and an exhilarating exploration of human ambition coming face to face with the beauty and power of nature. But most of all it's a lesson in overcoming self-doubt, trusting others and finding your true self. Bonnie demonstrates vividly and honestly the resilience of the human spirit and the importance of reaching for the stars.

Human Durability is about going beyond resilience to sustaining optimal performance with less stress. Derrick was shot 14 times with a high-powered rifle and lying on the ground for 3 hours before rescue. He had been a police sniper, recovery diver and counter-terrorist operative. Just to do that job let alone survive the shooting, he needed to understand the psychology and dynamics of high-performance leadership and high-performance mental health.

He defied the odds by physically surviving and then thriving. After two-and-a-half years of physical and psychological work and rehabilitation, he returned to full duties with Police STAR Group.
