Our greatest weakness lies in giving up, says Nelly Yoa, a talented athlete who overcame a traumatic machete attack to find success on both the soccer and AFL pitches.

“Life’s challenges are not supposed to paralyse you, they’re supposed to help you discover who you are. Turn your wounds into wisdom.”

Turn your wounds into wisdom, advises Nelly
