25.01.2022 Tune into 3AW 693 this Sunday night at 9pm for Great Australian Lives. Laura Turner chats with David Rowland, a clinical and forensic psychologist. Working in the prison system, David came face to face with not only some of Australias most reviled criminals but many people whose lives had been destroyed by violence and trauma. After a stress-induced stroke forced him to dramatically rethink his career he embarked on an incredible journey to heal himself and retrain his brain after losing much of his sensory capabilities. Hes now an expert in post-traumatic growth and his latest book, The Power of Suffering, is a collection of stories about how people have grown kinder and stronger in the wake of tragedy and trauma. #GAL #TobinBrothers #CelebratingLives #SayItNow Image: https://davidroland.com.au/

24.01.2022 This Sunday at 8am on 3MP, Grant Johnstone is joined by Movember Co-founder and Global Brand & Creative Director Travis Garone Before that very first moustache changed everything back in 2003, Travis Garone was a creative bringing artistic concepts to life for youth-driven surfing, skateboarding and music brands. Then, a chance conversation in a Melbourne bar about the dying art of the moustache led Trav and his mate Lucky to launch Movember which soon became a leading fo...rce championing men’s health the world over. Trav is also the co-founder of cult streetwear label Doomsday and creative agency People Make Progress. It was his experience tapping into a youth culture that was the driving force behind Movember’s brand, helping to make the movement appealing and popular with young men something that was unparalleled in the charity sector at the time. Trav has created countless street art, murals, graffiti artworks and installations, as well as collaborating on creative projects in all over the world - from LA to Japan and the UK and even created a new character with Adam Hargreaves for the beloved Mr Men series. #TobinBrothers #CelebratingLives #SayItNow
