Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in Australia and its incidence is increasing – with 1 in 7 Australian women and 1 in 716 Australian men expected to be diagnosed in their lifetime. Every day, at least 55 Australians will be told they have breast cancer and Kathryn Elliott was added to this list when she received a diagnosis of locally advanced triple positive breast cancer on the 23 August 2019, aged 46. Kath so generously share her gnarly experience with breast cancer and talk about how the men in her life, husband, Paulos and sons, Oscar (15), Tom (14) and Hugo (12) responded to her diagnosis, treatment and recovery. It’s quite a story and definitely one not to miss. Remember, it really is OK to not be OK!! @healingbreastcancer #breastcancersurvivor #breastcancerawareness #malebreastcancer

The magic of musical theatre combines singing, acting and dancing to project emotion to communicate joy and inspiration to an audience. Many of us think of cast members - dancing in a colourful spectacle, often forgetting other contributors like, roadies, costume designers, composers and stagehands, to name only a few. Back in 2015, industry health promotion charity Entertainment Assist released startling facts from a research project, conducted in association with Victoria University, Melbourne Australia, "Working in the Australian Entertainment Industry". Based on the general population, some of the stats highlighted: *suicide attempts for industry workers are more than double; *levels of moderate to severe anxiety symptoms are 10 times higher; and *levels of depression symptoms are five times higher. Conversely, a major theme emerged that workers expressed an overwhelming passion for their industry - a powerful and positive attitude to challenge some of the negative culture. I had the pleasure of hosting two singing, dancing and acting super stars from very different generations: 11 year old Flynn Turner, had recently played the lead role of Aladdin in his school production; and Will Centurion, an accomplished veteran of musical theatre also performed in Walt Disney’s Aladdin – years later, reinventing himself as a qualified counsellor for young entertainers. Hear Flynn and Will compare their thoughts and experiences around how we can influence generational and systemic change for this wonderfully, entertaining industry.
