[@LucyJessicaCarter]

You are so inspiring SJ!!! & love readly I have used it for years ❤❤

[@charlottewoolnough9581]

SJ, I cried watching you climb that mountain! 😅 What an incredible achievement, your sister would be so proud ❤

[@SJ_Strum]

Ah thank you so so much Charlotte, I cannot believe I had that opportunity, it's an incredible idea of Sophies. I think it will be my highlight of the year, while at the time I could only curse myself for signing up - ha ha! I felt Naomi laughing and crying along with me. xxxxxx

[@addyrain6817]

You are amazing, intelligent, and so strong to be able to do all that!!! ❤

[@SJ_Strum]

Ah that's so so lovely of you to say, I appreciate it so much xxxxx

[@addyrain6817]

@SJ_Strum I'm a big fan of yours, and I'm cheering you on!!!

[@emmabarrell5556]

Naomi is so proud of all you have achieved, grown and over came in this last year..and u should be very proud of yourself too SJ. You are the sweetest strongest soul❤

[@SJ_Strum]

Thank you so much for such a lovely message: I feel a bit at square one most days so capturing this has been really lovely x

[@helenmohammed2518]

Your social anxiety was so relatable! Well done on the hike, what an achievement 🎉

[@SJ_Strum]

It was such an amazing group of women, so many had interesting jobs and it was so eye opening from always spending time in the same friendship group. xxx

[@LauraByrne]

Oh I wish I could have sat with you in those hard moments. So proud of you always

[@SJ_Strum]

You always sit with me even when you're not there - I know I have you and you have me xxxxxx

[@dollyrocker40]

Brilliant well done I felt very emotional when you reached the top your sister would have been so proud it almost felt like she was with you hiking pushing you forward ❤ faye uk xxx

[@SJ_Strum]

I think she 100% was - I felt a huge overwhelm of her love at the top. Just close to her; I'm so grateful for Sophie for pushing me to come along - it will be a highlight in a super worse year in my life xxxx

[@dollyrocker40]

@@SJ_Strum also forgot to add you have panic attacks like me I Listern to audible The power of letting go. It’s really helping xxx

[@lynseyleanne813]

This made me feel so emotional and it caught me off guard. Maybe its a sign i need to push myself out of my comfort zone, thank you xxx

[@SJ_Strum]

It's very odd to out yourself out there with a new group but I genuinely feel that doing it with those women, was the making of the experience. Let's do Iceland!! I'm so tempted...
