This episode of Tell Me More features James Parr, who shares his journey from being diagnosed with a rare bone cancer in his early 20s to having his leg amputated just months later. He opens up about adapting to life with a disability, navigating identity shifts around body image, sexuality, dating, and confronting society’s perceptions of disability.

Through it all, James highlights the power of mindset, resilience, and self-acceptance, offering a perspective that challenges the idea that disability is something to be pitied, and instead shows how it can become a new normal filled with purpose, growth, and possibility.

This week we are joined by the incredible Dena Amy Kaplan, who you might recognise from Dance Academy, but has since had a wild career as an actor, singer, dancer and DJ.

However, her time in the limelight wasn't without struggle. Her diagnosis with PMDD and addiction to Xanax lead her down a path she wouldn't wish on her worst enemy. Dena has been incredibly open about her journey and we are grateful for her strength and vulnerability.

This week we sit down with Mitch Brown, former professional AFL footballer, to talk about the power of authenticity in a world where masculinity is often misunderstood.

Mitch shares the highs, the fears, and the freedom that came with coming out, and the importance of supporting the people you love, whether they’re queer or not.

We also discuss homophobia in AFL culture, and the ripple effect of words spoken in locker rooms.
