Brave Enough Now: An Inspirational Story of Self-Discovery, Survival and Hope

De: Tiffany Johnson

Narrado por: Tiffany Johnson

On a rainy day in July 1999, 21 young people lost their lives in the infamous Saxetenbach Gorge 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 relationship. 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 is a gripping story of courage, survival, friendship, and transformation.

A true story of discovery, adventure, love and loss. Told through humour and raw honesty of the author’s account of her fear, survival and ultimately, her healing.

Discovering yourself

Though being a man, I so mich resonate with Tiff with her story. However, she had a life discovering incident where she survived that I haven’t had (un)fortunately. But this book is a story of a girl grown into a woman and finding herself through the tough times of life. I feel that what an author from my state wrote, more you write Personal the more it becomes universal is so true. Thanks Tiffany for sharing your story. All the best wishes to you and hope to cross roads some time in our life!
