Therese, celebrating 50 fabulous years with the Your Face, Your Story Project.
Therese is a warrior, a survivor and a completely joyful person.
For Therese, the biggest positive thing about her age for her is the fact that it gives her a chance to reflect on what she has achieved in her life. Travelled the world, a 23-year (and counting) marriage, raised 2 amazing humans, had a fulfilling clinical and now academic career, completed a PHD. When Therese was 35 and her girls were only 2 and 4, she was diagnosed with breast cancer that had spread to many of her lymph nodes. The prognosis was not great, yet Therese fought like a savage, and she is here grateful for every day.
Therese is also my friend, and I was completely thrilled when she travelled from Brisbane to be part of this project.
I am catching up with Therese on Thursday to introduce her to her gallery but in the meantime, I could not resist sharing an image from her shoot.
The Your Face, Your Story Project is a project of inspiration celebrating the lives of 40 women over 40 and challenging the stereotypes of women and ageing.
