After a life-altering fall, years of surgeries, and the long road of rebuilding both body and identity, .naomi chose to honour her journey in a way she could carry every day.
Swimming became her lifeline.
Courage became her compass.
And ‘BE BRAVE’ became the words that held it all together.
Her custom ring features three intertwined gold bands — white, yellow and rose — symbolising truth, hope and compassion, and the unexpected crossing of paths that helped restore her from the inside out.
The gemstones reflect the Paralympic colours, honouring the journey, the community, and the bravery it took to stand on that podium.
This ring isn’t about what was lost.
It’s about what was rebuilt.
And the promise Monique makes to herself every single day — to be brave.
