A Current Affair: Quadriplegic fashion designer axed from company she thought she 'co-owned'

Watch the full A Current Affair video here.

To give some perspective to the supposed claims by my former business partner that I was only ever an employee of Christina Stephens - below are the exact words written by my former business partner Jessie Sadler and directly taken from a successful $20,000 CPL - Choice, Passion, Life grant application unashamedly promoting the fact that -

“Christina Stephens is the first adaptive and inclusive clothing label in Australia with a person with lived experience of disability at the leadership, ownership and design table. We believe Carol’s role is a fantastic model and motivation for people with disabilities to strive for similar creative and commercial opportunities”

This was the same storyline fed to Telstra Best in Business Awards, The Lord Mayor's Business Awards and the Australian Women's Small Business Champion Awards and based on this information Christina Stephens were finalists in all three Awards!
