3. The Boy Who Never Gave Up: Grit, Courage And The Right Support

At 12, Josh was told he was “the man of the house”. His life began amid instability – frequent moves, a turbulent home life and adult responsibilities thrust on him far too young.      Josh reveals how grit, courage and the right support helped him escape disadvantage and create a life and career he never could have imagined.  We also hear from Robyn, the Smith Family support worker who backed him for more than a decade, and from his parents and partner – underscoring the crucial need to have people in your corner.     CREDITS  Narrator: Sarah Macdonald  Audio production: Mylk Media [https://www.mylkmedia.com.au/]  Series producers: Jacqui Ooi, Carla Horton, Kim Batchelor, Kristina Warne    Theme music written and performed by Faith Kayrooz    To learn how you can help young Australians realise their potential, visit thesmithfamily.com.au [https://www.thesmithfamily.com.au/]  ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

2. The Place Where I Escaped: Finding Hope In Hard Times

For Tabitha, it was hard to see a better future when she was a child. She found escape in the library shelves, when life outside felt impossibly heavy.      Now a young mum and successful business owner, she talks about what it took to rise above the challenges and how she's become the strong person she is today. And demographer Dr Liz Allen, who knows poverty firsthand, speaks powerfully about her own experiences and how we can help more young people like Tabitha to not just survive, but thrive.     CREDITS  Narrator: Sarah Macdonald  Audio production: Mylk Media [https://www.mylkmedia.com.au/]  Series producers: Jacqui Ooi, Carla Horton, Kim Batchelor, Kristina Warne    Theme music written and performed by Faith Kayrooz    To learn how you can help young Australians realise their potential, visit thesmithfamily.com.au [https://www.thesmithfamily.com.au/]  ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
