Malin wrote: ‘The strength was always in her, almost like fire waiting to be ignited. We all have an inner-flame of power which we can tap into whenever we want. I remember when going through trauma and pain I would feel so weak and vulnerable.
‘I didn’t even know what strength was, but I was actually using it the whole time. I kept going and now I realise that was it. The willpower was real. Although at times I wanted to give up, the strength over-ruled and I carried on.’

The mental health campaigner wrote: ‘Whenever I have lost control of a situation whether it be my baby girl dying after 4 weeks of life, and me not wanting to give up for her battle, or my 2 years of emotional abuse; I had to actually realise that somethings aren’t in my control.
‘I had to let go and let be. I had to understand that this was part of the process how painful it was.. but the thing I did have control of was my STRENGTH to carry on.’

‘Be strong. Be beautiful. Be fearless. And believe that anything is possible when you have the right people around you & you’re trusting the path you’re on. Begin by letting go. x’
