1h 2m · Stillness Everyday · 23 Apr 14:00

Today Rod is joined by special guest Nathan Tolman, a veteran and the founder of the Association of Veteran Surfers - Sunshine Coast INC, as well as a veteran mentor. Nathan shares his personal stories of the battles he faced and the life he led as a soldier deployed across various parts of the world for over 20 years. He shares how his upbringing and military experience has shaped him into the compassionate, empathetic, and caring individual he is today.


They delve into the societal divide that is being created by the contrasting roles assigned to the masculine and feminine roles. Nathan shares his personal values as a parent, and his approach to raising and teaching his sons with discipline to equip them with respect, vulnerability, and compassion. These are qualities that Nathan holds dear, and he uses his mentoring activities to educate the younger generation through programs offered by his not-for-profit organisation.

After leaving the military, Nathan bravely discusses his struggles with depression and suicidal thoughts and how he overcame them. He shares his journey towards healing and provides insights into the strategies he employs to cope with the challenges of mental health.
