Join me as we navigate through an inspiring journey with Prabod Mahortra, a retired academic who's making strides from MCG to SCG all in the name of charity. Striding with a purpose, Prabod's journey is not just a challenging trek, but an earnest effort to raise funds for the crucial Jane McGrath Foundation. But there's more to this episode than meets the eye, as we touch upon the recent World Cup and the sterling Indian cricket team, and delve into the heart of rural towns in Victoria and New South Wales, unearthing stories that are often left untold.

Ever wondered what goes into planning such a trek or how one prepares themselves physically for a journey this long? We'll get into the nitty-gritty of Prabod's training regimen, dietary plans, and progress compared to his last year's walk. Can't get enough? Hold your breath as we explore the prospect of future walks and Prabod's unwavering commitment to making a positive change. And of course, there's an engaging discussion on the McGrath Foundation, and the incredible efforts of individuals in making a difference in the lives of those affected by breast cancer.

Our conversation doesn't end there. We'll unravel the often-overlooked fact that men can also be victims of breast cancer and the emotional toll it inflicts on survivors and their loved ones. You'll hear personal stories of breast care nurses working with the foundation, many of whom are breast cancer survivors themselves, adding a unique, personal touch to their work. We're on a mission to inspire our listeners, so gear up to support those affected by breast cancer and celebrate the power of community and small acts of kindness. An episode packed with inspiration, resilience, and humanity awaits you.
