#68 - Paul Satterley - Conquering Cancer Through Empathy & Togetherness

Paul Satterley is the 1995 Liston Trophy Winner, former AFL listed Player and current coach of Old Melburnians. He has coached throughout the AFL,VFL, VAFA and TAC Cup.

On this episode we are joined by D's uncle, Satts for a raw and funny chat over a couple of beers. Ranging from Football and life as a player and coach through to his life threatening cancer battle.

Satts has had an illustrious career in football.

We talked about his journey as a player. From the highs of spending three years on the Footscray AFL list and winning the Liston Trophy. To the lows including being delisted a day before his 21st birthday, injuries and what it's liked being physically targeted and beat up week in and week out.

Not only was Satts a great player, but he's an extremely successful coach.

He shared his journey which lead to coaching at the Melbourne Demons and the steps along the way. He told us what he believes makes a good coach, balancing relationships and friendships and the tough parts of the job like delisting players.

But outside of footy, Satts has an even more powerful story to share. In 2017 he was diagnosed with a rare skin cancer that threatened his life.

He shared the emotional story of going through radiation therapy, the horrific side effects and the scary of thought that he may not survive.

But with that challenge came the most uplifting upsides. Including how the team he was coaching gave him yet another 'why' to fight and the incredible empathy displayed by a co-worker that allowed him to take time to battle and conquer cancer.

There is so much to enjoy in this episode. Sit back and enjoy!
