Falling Upwards

A chance social media discovery leads Theresa on a path to new perspectives on her past life

Falling Upwards

This is my story. I am someone who has spent a long time in my life fighting to overcome one or more adversities. Falling and rebuilding each time to a better life.

In 2018 a chance discovery on Facebook of my sister’s passing led to a journey back to my roots and family, trawling through these sometimes-traumatic memories of home, along with the information I received along the way caused a re-examination of the motivations of the people during my formative years.

Theresa Davis

Born at the end of 1970, in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, UK I grew up in a sleepy Northamptonshire village, leaving school with very average O Level results, I started work at 16, attending college on a day release program eventually working through to the verge of obtaining a degree. Until life took a sideways tilt and I came out as trans in 1997, after a couple of years of pain and struggle I eventually joined the Telegraph in early 2001. I remained there until I asked for redundancy in 2007. I took the redundancy payment and used it to purchase a run down property in the Canary Islands, Spain where I now live, and run my own technology company, with my wife Helen
