A remarkably courageous young woman living in North Queensland launched her debut book STRONG inspiring the Hinchinbrook community on Saturday 22nd January 2022. Author, Amy Aquilini bravely shared her personal story revealing what it took to rebuild her life again after she came seconds away from death back in September 2013 after she rode her quad bike into a tree on the outskirts of her hometown Ingham.

The injuries Amy sustained from her accident, including a Traumatic Brain Injury and limited use of her right arm, are one’s doctors had little to no hope of her ever overcoming let alone becoming a contributing member of society again. As Amy completely retrained her brain, she was able to release herself from a victimhood mindset shining her positive light on the world regardless of her daily struggles.

This incredible young woman took on the hand she was dealt and fought back during her rehabilitation and recovery journey to prove to the world hard work and determination pays off. Amy pushed herself to the limits, giving her book everything, she had to bring it to life all whilst being a mum.

“I was born to be wild and curious, and I am passionate about what I believe in. I am the most authentic version of myself I have ever been. I wanted to be the energy I wanted to attract so I became the energy I wanted to attract. I wanted to become powerful, beautiful, brilliant and brave so I became powerful, beautiful, brilliant and brave.”

Amy will continue to share her story of adversity on stages and digitally to the world, she is available for speaking events that are sure to inspire even people who aren’t inspired easily. Amy is already booked for a speaking event in Townsville and is ready to take on the world STRONG!
