It never fails to astound me that, every minute of every day, another man kills himself somewhere in the world …. at the same time, at least another 20 are trying – My guest tomorrow, Jake Edwards, is a fourth generation AFL player who describes one of his proudest moments in life - running out onto the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) in front of 80,000 people.. in the same breath he discloses the lowest point … facing a bathroom mirror, contemplating how to end his life.

7 years later, in 2015 Jake pulled out all the stops and created a welfare and education program for Australian sporting clubs, called "Outside the Locker Room", which in almost 4 years, has become one of the most sought after and well recognised programmes being used by more than 100 grassroots sporting clubs and schools across Australia. Hear what it felt like being Jake Edwards back then and right now

At a very young age, many of us have the great fortune of being inducted into a system of education - groomed to become "something" that will sustain the rest of our lives. How do we choose an occupation, so important, with such little experience? Do we follow pennies or passion?

Steven Savino picked up his first tennis racquet at the tender age of 11 and from that moment followed his intuition. Some 30 years later, dedication, determination, and trust in his gut has led Steven to become an internationally recognised, professional tennis coach. He joined me to "serve" up some "ace" "deuce" on what it feels like to have followed his career "match" all over the world.
