Brooke Blurton: Owning My Story

This episode is so raw and real. The incredible Brooke Blurton opens up about her challenging childhood and how she has overcome her past to become the strong, confident woman and champion for indigenous issues she is today. Brooke shares how she has become such a positive role model, and most of all how she has found the courage to share her story and find strength in vulnerability. Brooke also opens up about how it felt to have her sexuality labelled and treated as a plot point while she was a contestant on The Bachelor. We discuss the dark side of reality TV and how producers try to manipulate the contestants to cause drama - and the effect that has had on Brooke's life outside of the show. We hope this podcast empowers you to own your own story and find happiness despite life’s challenges. You can find out more about Brooke on her Instagram @brooke.blurton
