Watching Grace Tame #AustralianStory & the thing that resonated most was watching her run.👟 I've always gone back to running when I'm trying to process grief or trauma. It's not a quick fix but it has always helped me hold on.💔 Thanks for all the miles this year @TamePunk✌️

Anyone who tries to silence @TamePunk, simply doesn’t understand that it goes against the very thing we have praised her for. Congrats to Grace and @ninafunnell, and thank you both for your bravery. #AustralianStory

I’m a big Grace supporter and to hear about her past/childhood/young adulthood is very emotional. I love that she is candid, raw, honest and truly herself. A game changer, trail blazer. #AustralianStory
