On this episode of Coach and the Doctor we chat to a man that not unlike a lot of our guests has struggled with his mental health.
Tony(not his real name) suffers from Schizophrenia and has done so for around 15 years.
In this discussion he talks about what it was like when he was first diagnosed and how he has learned to not only live with it but to  use it to help him make the most of his life.
He's honest, open and at times humorous as he talks about what its like to be 'Tony'

In this episode of COACH and the DOCTOR we do it with a heavy heart.
Harriet Serafim who was senior support coordinator and a valued colleague with our major sponsor Gilda Care, passed away last month.
Harriet who was a guest on our last Episode was larger than life and we will speak about the impact she had on both Coach and The Doctor, later in the show.
But  up first is a young woman who has kicked many goals already, in the short time she has been on the planet.
Isabela(or as she likes to be called Bela) Hunter is definitely up for a chat as she waxes lyrically with the Doctor about the intricacies of the NDIS whilst Coach try's to stay awake!
Just kidding ,its a wonderful chat that is as entertaining as it is enlightening.

We hope you enjoyed this episode!

A really interesting bloke.

Harriet attempts to unravel some of the mysteries behind being a Support Coordinator.
Also The Doctor(not a real doctor)try's to be funny and fails miserably!
That in itself is funny.
