Robyn Fellowes story is one of sheer grit, smashing through the glass ceiling of the Australian Army’s special forces, and becoming the first Australian woman to wear the coveted green beret of the Australian Commandos.  

Despite a childhood marred by the effects of domestic violence, Robyn’s life story is one of resilience, mental toughness, empowerment and positivity. 

Throughout her military career, Robyn has always championed the cause of women, whether by supporting those who stood alongside her in the defence force, or by empowering women during overseas deployments. 

One of Robyn's career highlights was as the Australian Army Gender Advisor to the United Nations Mission in South Sudan.

You can read Robyn's story in her autobiography 'Wings of Change', which is available in paperback or for Kindle on Amazon, or as an audio book on Audible.
