Synopsis
Fig Fitzsherbert excels at making lists, playing the piano, and advanced mathematics. However, her high-achieving mother sets her an impossible New Year's resolution each year. Determined to take control, Fig sets her own challenge: to swim around the world. There's just one problem—she can't swim. With the support of her best friend and a group of inspiring older women, Fig embarks on a journey of self-discovery, facing fears and growing in confidence along the way.
