    in fact, tuning into your own story is your power. We are all unique. We have all faced difficult circumstances, experienced triumphs, setbacks and disappointments. But it is how we have made our choices in the face of adversity – how we harnessed courage at our own thresholds – that makes each of us unique and exceptional. This is the story others want to hear.

    The gleaming detail is the one thing that captures both the emotion and idea of the story at once, in one fell swoop. A singular, elegant moment of clarity
