About the author
Briony Benjamin is a keynote speaker, viral video producer and author of
Life Is Tough But So Are You. After creating cheeky and impactful videos for Australia's leading purpose-led campaigning groups, she landed the job of Executive Producer of Video at women's media site Mamamia. However, a few months into the job she started to feel crappy … All. The. Time. Doctors told her she was just stressed and should learn to meditate. She started to think maybe she was a bit crap at life and not cut out for a busy, fast-paced media career. But it turned out she had cancer, all through her body. Unsure of what was to come, Briony turned the camera on herself and started documenting her journey. The resulting short video, 'You Only Get One Life', went viral, its raw portrayal of cancer - combined with the powerful reminder that life is fleeting and precious - touching millions.
