Matt's indigenous roots and growing up in the country, gave him a deep appreciation and connection to the land.

From leaving home at 12 to becoming a professional footballer,

Matt had the skills but it was the spotlight that brought out his wild side. The decision was made for him and his contract was terminated.

Through accountability and some extra time in New Zealand he got himself back on track.

Matt eventually changed career lanes and spent the next number of years supporting young Aboriginal boys, both on the East Coast and up in the Kimberley.

During this time up North he proved himself worthy to secure a spot on the TV show "Alone" which ultimately confirmed what was most important in his life.

his short return to footy landed him not only in hospital, but with a Vertebra being surgically removed and a cancer diagnosis.

Matt's story is a testament to how one man's strength can bring you back from a place most couldn't even comprehend.

From a child standing out in a small Belgian town, to stepping onto stages around the world. Marieke's life has reflected both her introvert and performer spirit.

She nurtured her gifts early with structure and discipline, but the cracks started to appear when she found herself crossing lines she never thought she'd cross.

From overcoming addiction, domestic violence and fighting for justice in a court case lasting 4 years. She found strength in removing the inner victim and becoming the sovereign of her own destiny.

This is a powerful story of survival and return.

Ed's contrasting childhood led him on a seesaw of deconstructed life adventures.

From straight A's to losing his brother and almost himself to drugs.

Ed's life views were challenged by combining psychotherapy and psychedelics opening, not only himself, but a world of possibilities.

From 6 years in China before hitting a personal rock bottom to becoming fluent in the language and then being the interpreter for the British embassy.

Though impressive, his climb back to the top was met with crippling social anxiety and medication.

A change of heart moved him from a government desk job to lucrative remote online work, where he traded addressing diplomats in conference halls for loose getaways in Vegas and Champagne at the front of the plane.

At this point, the only thing slowing Ed down was 3.5 years in a Japanese monastery.

This story has it all, as it showcases the true example of human introspection and what can be achieved and overcome because of it.

I will be sharing my reflections after the podcast but until then, sit back and enjoy the path of Ed Barton. @edbarton.coach
