Shannii Maree – Strong Without Realising
Life through the eyes of a woman who had no idea how strong she was becoming

I Love who I am as a woman. I Love who I am as a wife. I love who I am as a mother. I love who I am as a friend. I. Love. Who. I am. Did I always? No. How did it change? I chose to change. I chose to see myself differently.
Recently I have been experiencing another death and rebirth of my marriage. The ever falling away and new things being introduced. This called for me to stand in a power that I don’t normally stand in because I don’t need to. It called for my husband to stand back, stand up and step in, in
