And one of the million “select, delete” moments…

22/01/2026

One chapter with a bit of a sweary finale. Still resonates today.

Big day. Big energy.

Audiobook recording officially underway
Author talk locked in - I met the rooster from the poster!
Same venue. Same story. New formats.

From page → mic → stage.

This one’s been a while coming.

Turns out reading your own story out loud is… an experience. Sorry to those in the first chapter. I probably cursed your name somewhere in the million takes.

248%!
Ali Flynn from her Challenges That Change Us podcast messaged me yesterday — turns out our first episode went... ok.

It averaged 248% more listens than her usual. Who'd have thought! I suspect it's cheers to my dear mum for punishing the refresh button like a maniac.

When a conversation subtly shifts into a therapy session with a microphone, magic can happen.

Most of you basically heard me close the chapter on some very ordinary stuff, and the moment we wrapped the second episode I felt a weight lift that hasn’t returned.

Thanks to everyone who listened, reached out, and made that 248% feel like 248% support. In the words of the great Kostya Tszyu - "I love ya's all. Every one of singles yous"

Here's the link to the first episode if you're not sure what I'm on about. We followed it up with Ep 152.

Had a great chat with ABC’s Cam Marshall this week about 'So You Got F*cked Up' — we talked recovery, mindset, and mental health.

It went out across the Mid North and Coffs Coast, but you can catch here, (skip to 1hr 13min 45 sec into the episode OR 2hr 11min countdown) https://www.abc.net.au/listen/programs/midnorthcoast-breakfast/breakfast/105982004

Big thanks to Cam and the ABC Mid North Coast team for the invite and the genuine conversation.

Books, beers, bad language, better stories and a proper catch up.

Armidale Launch — it’s on!

So You Got F*cked Up book launch tomorrow at The Welders Dog Bar (The OG Welders)

UPDATE: There will be Oktoberfest charcuterie style platters available for purchase, and BYO food is also okie doakes.

I dropped in to see Michelle at the Reader's Companion, to say hi and thanks.

She showed me the book looking all resplendent on the shelf. Grab a copy from her, or just pick one up at the launch — I’ll have a stack there.

Midday. Saturday. 8 Nov.
