Mel Thomas could be defined by tragedy, and would be forgiven for that given the shit she’s gone through. But the inspiration that she has become, and the influence that she has generated is grounded in a self-worth that is woven into her DNA.
Founder of the KYUP! Project, Mel has a mission to bring attention, awareness & action towards domestic violence, which incredibly still has a massive lack of focus from official channels & institutions. Her focus on building worth in those who have suffered & struggled with it lead us to have an amazing conversation & contemplation about the whole topic around worth/self-worth, which has had me seriously reflecting personally around the whole concept of worth. Honestly, it has sparked something in me, so marinade on this chat.
Warning – DO NOT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER! As elegant as Mel is, she is also a 2-time Australian Champion Black Belt!
