THE C WORD

THE C WORD

Meet Lee, your everyday, early 40's, Aussie bloke. He loves footy, love's keeping fit, and has spent most of the last 12 years coaching AFL football teams.

He has a wife, two young boys, and a zest for life. And just 6 weeks ago, he was diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer.

In a time when one should be paralysed with uncertainty, Lee has chosen to take on this challenge like he does everything else, quite literally, head on.

This podcast is a snapshot of his journey, from day one. His aim is to use his own coaching skills to tackle the unknowns, share what he learns, offer new perspectives and focus on helping people, as well as himself, to deal with life’s challenges, no matter what’s thrown your way.

So far, Lee has two rules - don't cry in front of him and, please, don't mention The C Word.
