ey legends. This episode is a legal Q&A with my friend Rohan McAdam who is a family lawyer in Queensland, Australia (https://www.mcadamfamilylaw.com.au/). Rohan and I discuss some topical questions I've been coming across in my discussions on family law, and we broadly explain and outline the issues I raise. Whilst not legal advice it'll hopefully help explain a few common terms or issues others might come across too in any family legal proceedings. Thanks to Rohan for his time and peace out until 2019.

Hey again, today I caught up with the legendary Ben Fragar to discuss latest developments with his son who was in the sole custody of his ex partner. Following some concerns raised about Ben's son raised at school, there was governmental intervention and Ben's son ended up in foster care. We discuss how this worked and why Ben wasn't considered as an alternative to take care of his son...it's all a bit baffling but hopefully it provides some valuable insight. Happy listening.

Hey all. It's been a while. I'm sorry! Today I sat down with my amazing friend Kirsten and we recorded what I think is an exceptional podcast where Kirsten shares her experience growing up and her parent's separation. Kirsten is one of the most amazing people I know and this year hiked from Mexica to Canada - yes the whole fecking U.S.A. She's warm, honest, brave and full of love and I think all of that comes out in this episode and I hope you learn as much from it as I did. Thanks for listening!

Hey friends! I was lucky enough to meet Jason Spaull at a Dads In Distress (DIDS) meeting on the Gold Coast, Australia, a few months ago. Jason attended to share the story about his brother’s suicide which is a sad subject but somehow, I think, the message from Jason is a positive one. If you or anyone you know is feeling hopeless, please speak to someone! Parents Beyond Breakup is one option I know and recommend - https://parentsbeyondbreakup.com/ - but there are many other options, just give it a Goo

Heather and Gerrard are AMAZING! I feel lucky to know Heather and Gerrard and to call them my friends. I feel especially lucky Heather and Gerrard were willing to give up their valuable time and sit down with me to talk about parenting. Gerrard has been blind since birth so faces more challenges than most. But, as we discuss, this certainly doesn't hold him back. When Heather and Gerrard aren't busy podcasting they are busy making chocolate in Brisbane at Chocolate Moments - http://chocolatemoments.com.au/

Rohan is a family lawyer on the Gold Coast I met recently and I really like his values and direction he was moving in with his career. I really think Rohan just wants to help people which, if you believe what you hear, is rare in a lawyer. Rohan and I hope to set up a regular Q&A podcast to answer questions we gather from the public on family law, but for now you'll have to make do with this wisdom he shares on this episode. Rohan can also be contacted on his website at - https://www.mcadamfamilylaw.com.au/

This time I get my chat on with Mark Turner. Mark is an every day hero that gives himself 1% of the credit he deserves. Mark is a very giving, caring and gentle man and I'm grateful to have him as a friend, and to discuss what he's been through with his ex-wife and where he is currently. Check out more on Mark at live-the-best-life.com

We also discuss our legendary friend Gerrard Gosens and his lovely wife Heather. They make the best chocoloates that you can find at chocolatemoments.com.au.

Izzy is da best! The only thing I don't like about Izzy is that she never lets me help her without resistance. Izzy talks with me about her childhood and growing up, which I think helps explain her independent streak.

Izzy has an awesome blog which you should read - https://heresthethingfuckeveryone.wordpress.com/

Izzy is also raising money for mental health, please support her - https://beyondblue-individual.everydayhero.com/au/izzy-s-shave-for-mental-health-awareness

Stephen Holden is a scholar and delightful person to be around. I met Stephen at a local men's support group in the Gold Coast, Australia, and Stephen quickly stood out for his strong, well-thought out and reasonable opinions. Stephen has been through a lot and we talk through his story, with tit-bits of his wisdom thrown in and me trying to keep up whilst Stephen's brain moves too fast. Stephen has a great book for those going through a break-up - The Other Glass Ceiling.

Ben Fragar is one of my favourite human beings. Ben leads a men's support group in the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia, called Dads In Distress. Men meet up each week to share with whatever it is they are going through - usually a messy separation involving alienation from their kids. Ben generously and bravely shares some of his wisdom about what he has been through and what he has learnt.
