Wind back the clock on any Australian or New Zealand woman in her thirties or forties today and you’d probably find a Triangl bikini tucked away in her swimwear drawer.

Hanging by a Thread takes a vulnerable deep dive into success and the challenge of caring for your mental health while in pursuit of your dreams.
