Brave Enough Now: An Inspirational story of self discovery, survival and hope

On a rainy day in July 1999, twenty-one young people lost their lives in the infamous Saxetenbach Gouge Swiss Canyoning Disaster. I should have been one of them. The flash flood swept down the mountain with impossible force, sweeping the victims’ bodies miles downstream. It would take days to recover them all, many were only identifiable from dental records. But I survived. I had begun my travels in search of adventure, only to find myself on the run from a toxic realtionship, I escaped on a European tour where I began to put the missing puzzle pieces of myself back together and how to trust again, rebuilding my faith in love and friendship– only to be plunged into a world of new dangers by what happened in the gorge that fateful day. From little girl lost to lioness. I am Brave Enough Now. Brave Enough Now, a gripping story of courage, survival, friendship and transformation. A true story of discovery, adventure, love and loss.
