https://terriblehappytalks.com/Stephen is a proud Koori man of the Warumunga Kamilaroi nation, father, motivational speaker, skateboarder and double amputee (legs). Stephen grew up in a low socio-economic area on the south east coast of New South Wales Australia. Aside from being a highly dedicated father, and skateboarder, Stephen is passionate about advocating for, and raising awareness about, the pandemic of mental illness that continues to sweep the world, particularly in males. Known as “Stove” to his friends, Stephen’s skills on a skateboard are mind-blowing. You just have to watch his clips on Youtube to see his level of dedication and his ability to adapt. Upon meeting Stephen, I sensed his innate sincerity immediately, a person that is comfortable in his skin, empathetic and supportive of others. In this week's episode, Stephen is with me to share his journey, challenges, experiences and hopes for the future.
