Nathan Cavalieri survived leukemia at six, started touring music at twelve, and was in the middle of a bidding war between Madonna, Prince and Michael Jackson before he was a teenager. But none of that is the most extraordinary thing about him. Today Nathan sits down with Sam and Sarah and opens up about the years nobody saw. A crippling battle with mental health that shrunk his world so small he was afraid to leave the house and panic attacks that stopped him performing. Nathan sits down with us for one of the most extraordinary conversations we've ever had. Mental health, fear, music and the long road back to himself.

Luke Van Os played Sam's brother on Home and Away, but before they were siblings on screen, they were strangers passing each other in a hospital corridor, both quietly losing someone they loved. Today he sits down with Sam and Sarah and opens up about the period nobody really saw, his dad dying suddenly, a six year relationship ending and doing it all alone in a new city with a brand new job. Luke also gets into why he no longer manifests, the importance of having a life outside of work and why future you needs present you to feel uncomfortable.
