Michael Parker said:
" Sarah Jouault's story is of a life that reaches out and slowly pulls you in. It is the story of an incredible life of setbacks, hardships, pain and reward. Sarah's beginnings were a mystery to her for a number of years; not really knowing to whom she belonged. She learned the truth eventually, but it taught Sarah to become a survivor, and despite three unsuccessful marriages, she lifted herself to great heights as an award-winning athlete and a phenomenal fundraiser through her Herculean efforts running in Marathons and Ironman events all over the world. An indefatigable woman acknowledged by her peers both in the fierce world of competition and selfless world of fund raising."

"This book is awe inspiring. It's a wonderful story of bravery, resilience and courage. As the title says... 'Never giving up' It's very well written and holds your concentration throughout. The author describes everything so well, it makes you think you're there with her. Very much worth the read about this brave lady who is still giving. "
Emma said:
"Sarah's book is a fascinating and inspiring read. Despite deep trauma, Sarah shows true determination, stamina, purpose and dignity in turning her own life events around and bringing hope to others. Her courage shines through and despite life's joys and cruelties, Sarah achieves amazing sporting accomplishments, raising thousands of pounds for children's charities. The book is also about personal accomplishment. Through hardship and sheer determination Sarah grows in self-belief, gradually taking back control of her own life on her own terms. A story of strength, friendship and courage. And I feel there is far more to come......"

"Sarah's book is not just inspiring, it's a tale of overcoming adversaries and helping hundreds of children overcome theirs. They say that it takes a village to raise a child, well every village needs a Sarah."

"Sarah is a phenomenal lady who not only has experience in nursing, she has also overcome many mental health hurdles in her life. I am sure she can tell you better than I can but after only reading half of her book, I am truly in awe of her strength."
Janet said:
"An extraordinary lady who has lived an extraordinarily life. Searching for her roots, searching for love, searching for adventure. She found it all but together with trauma, with betrayal and with conflict. Hard to read through the pain and disappointments but so inspiring when Sarah literally finds her feet, conquers her fears, gains self belief and with guts and determination achieves so much. A roller coaster of a read but so rewarding because love conquers all."

“Sarah’s book is about great courage,great determination and great success. Not just the success of breaking records and gaining podium places but the success of being able to make a difference to people’s lives. What a legacy and what an inspiration for young athletes to see that sheer determination and hard work. Her courage shines through the pages of this book the courage to be her own person.
