Winston Churchill famously said “If you are going through hell, keep going”. That quote was my motivation through may years of family tragedy (leaving me to raise my son alone since he was 4), and all the collateral damage that came with it. Most significantly I was diagnosed with a pre-cancer condition, but I ignored it for 2 years amidst all the litigation, solo parenting etc. That all changed when I pondered what would happen to my son if it became cancer. In an instant, " I took ownership of my health " (for Dylan's sake) and I turned it around 180 degrees - including losing 50kgs and improving all my medical markers. "When I found my WHY, my HOW found me".
During Covid I started a men's health charity to help as many men as possible find their WHY, as it's THE power that enables us to take ownership of our health.
