Growing up as a twin, we've never had to go through that lonely stage because i've always got this one with me all the time.

Stories from everyday people who share their most darkest and challenging experiences in life, and thought provoking teaching on subjects such as “dealing with failure”, “following your dream" and “living a legacy”. We hope you gain as much from listening to these incredible stories as we have capturing them.

I was born in Manilla Philippines in a little suburb called Quezon City. I lived in the slums of the Philippines so I was already born into quite a bit of poverty. The house i'd say would be equivalent to the size of a bedroom here.

My dad was quite an intense, violent kind of man. Right from when I can remember I used to see my mum get beaten up, get beaten to a pulp.

I grew up in a family of 12 children in the Democratic republic of Congo. That's central Africa. As a family we were told that we were moving to Australia. It was like the whole of Africa had just landed because everyone just wanted to take photos of us.
