This episode of Australian Story revolves around Hugh Van Cuylenburg, who has a hit podcast about embracing imperfection and becoming more resilient. It took a deep and difficult look at his own family’s complexities, especially his sister’s challenges with mental health, to help him truly understand the hardships of resilience.
As amazing as Hugh’s story is, it is a statement from his sister Georgia that trumpets the courage and empowerment of victim-survivors.
“The chapter ended with ‘I mourn the loss of potential in my sister because of what that man did to her’. And I just was absolutely ‘no’! I just cannot be part of a message that says you get traumatised as a child and your life can’t be great, because that’s not true.”
