When Distraction Looks Like Success
Even the good distractions can keep you from facing yourself.
In this conversation with Daniel Evans from Walkabout Warriors, we walk back into his childhood. Into the things no kid should ever have to carry. Into the silent shadows that still lived inside him even while he was playing rugby league.
He talks about how footy, fitness and even success can become armour. How they can become a distraction from what lives underneath.
When the games end, the crowd fades and the silence arrives, that is when the real work begins.
We speak about the man he is now. The way he stands for community, culture and healing through his Aboriginal art, workshops and presence. A man reclaiming his story and walking others home in the process.

The eldest stepping into high school. A threshold. The end of a season. The quiet grief and beauty that comes with watching your kids grow and something familiar slowly fall away.
