MMHS 30/03/21 - This week we have a champion of a bloke in Glen Collis join psychotherapist Boudi Maassen​ and myself.  Now a senior drug and alcohol counsellor at the The Glen Centre on the Central Coast, Glen has overcome his own difficulties of drinking and drugging to block out childhood scars and fit in the egotistical world of champion boxing.  He's still a fighter, fighting for the underdog, but not with his hands anymore.  He is an inspirational Aboriginal fella with so much wisdom to share.
