Sometimes, crucial life-defining moments just happen and we don’t even know what to do with them. A few days ago I have been nominated among others as one of the 2021 Brilliant Women in Digital Health by an Australian panel and, as one does, I went on Linkedin to share the great news. While stumbling around my profile I noticed the only award I recorded was the local poetry contest I won in 2004. I decided to avoid mentioning the Japanese cosplay trophy I accidentally won three-thousand years ago.
