Your Story Your Medicine
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. I'll be sharing my reflections after the podcast but until then, sit back and enjoy the adventures of Matt Allwood. @burntriverproject for all other information about this podcast and the work I do in the mental health field head over to www.plumbplanes.com [http://plumbplanes.com] @plumb_planes_collective on Instagram or Plumb Planes Collective on YouTube.
