Kerryn Phelp's life has been marked by many firsts: first person in her family to complete high school, first female doctor reporting on health issues on Australian TV, first same-sex couple to publicly talk about marriage equality and same sex parenting in Australia.
But for Kerryn, the year she became the first woman and LBGTQIA+ person to be elected President of the Australian Medical Association held special significance.
