About this listen
An inspiring, honest and intimate memoir about family, love and rising from the ashes.
From the age of twelve, Alison Mau wanted to be a journalist like her father. He was a beer-swilling, straight-talking Aussie who was rough around the edges but could quote passages of Hamlet at will. He taught Ali everything—from how to skin a rabbit and throw a punch to how to craft a sharp sentence—and she craved his validation as she navigated the sexist badlands of Australian print and television journalism through the 1980s and '90s.
From Melbourne to London and Auckland, Ali built a glittering career and became a media darling—until an unexpected call from her sister brought her professional and personal lives crashing together with devastating force. As an investigative reporter bringing New Zealand's #MeToo stories to light, she had to survey the wreckage of her family myth and ask herself, 'Am I strong enough?' and 'Are there words for this?'

Raw and Brave
Such raw honest and brave story shared. Deepest heartbreak and betrayal by those who bring us into this world. Trauma has a very long and profound effect on those how endure it in any form!

Interesting
A good story although the delivery leaves a bit to be desired. Lots of respect for Ali Mau but not a natural story teller.
