“At the age of 66 and with a brain injury disability, developing a prototype of a product from scratch without the skills, background or know how. I continuously doubt myself, but I believe that what I’m working on would help quite a few people. So, here I am, still trying despite health and life challenges, but it’s becoming more and more real.” – Anette, Bournemouth, England Facing fears “Going to therapy: it opened up a can of worms, which forced me to address things I didn’t even know were issues. I’m still on this very tricky journey but I’m already reaping the benefits.” – Sarah, Lincolnshire, England “I used to struggle with speech articulation, and it deeply embarrassed me. As a kid, I saw specialists, but it never really worked. At 27, I gave it another try, and this time, I improved. What surprised me most? No one ever commented on the change. I realised that people aren’t focused on our flaws like we think. That was a powerful lesson in self-awareness.” – Josef, Czech Republic Main image: Vuk Saric
