There’s no doubt a lot of us are feeling a bit lost or struggling at the moment.

Well you’re not alone. In Bounce Back, Andrew talks to prominent Australians about major challenges that have been thrown their way, and how they’ve overcome these difficulties on the road to success.

On the morning of the 18th of May 2019, Australians woke up to vote in the Federal Election with most expecting the Labor party to elected to Government and Bill Shorten to be Prime Minister that night.

The polls, media and public commentary all pointed to that result, after almost beating Malcolm Turnbull in 2016 Labor were confident this were their time. Soon after the polls closed things weren't looking good for Labor. This certainly wasn't the plan.

Within hours Bill Shorten had phoned Scott Morrison to congratulate him on his unlikely victory. Bill announced he would stand down as Labor leader but committed to stay in Parliament under the new leadership. He's currently the Shadow Minister for the National Disability Insurance Scheme and for Government Services.

This series will feature some of Australia’s most recognised sports men and women, prominent businesspeople and well-known politicians, allowing them to tell their story, in their own words.

Bounce Back is about promoting well-being and good mental health, by showing that even in the most difficult of times, there are people who you can turn to for support - whether they’re mates, family, colleagues, professionals even your neighbours.

It’s about how to look after yourself when things are tough, believing in yourself and knowing you can come through it even stronger. 

Dr. Andrew Rochford is a proud ambassador for DrinkWise, which is sponsoring this podcast.
