Motivating, personal and inspiring

Thanks so much for sharing your experience Sophie and Andie! I hope it motivates many more women (at all ages of life) to get out there, support each other, and just try it!

This bio was well written and well narrated. So glad the authors read it themselves. Felt more personal that way.
