#OrdineroliSpeaking Jess Jonassen has played a starring role for the Australian Women's Cricket team for a decade, playing in all forms of the game. Her success on the field is testament to her resilience off it. Battles with depression and self identity led Jess down a path where she self harmed and abused alcohol. At the same time, Jess was also coming to terms with her father’s declining health. As she represents Australia in another World Cup - this time in New Zealand, Jess wants to share her story publicly for the first time in the hope of helping others.
