Well what you gonna do when Shayne Brian and Steve get together, it’s fun, it’s authentic and it is still deep. Steve finds out how Shayne has pulled through the issue of trust, after it being broken and busted by a mate. It is how we perceive the effects of being let down so badly, and whether we carry that with us, or learn from it and move on.
Moving on now. What great saying. We can all move on. Our life has so many unexpected turns to take and it is so exciting, when you are present enough, to make the most of all of them.
There are so many people you have not met yet, that you will say “ I love you “ , to. That is a fact.
Taking lessons from our experience is not a secret, but all those that can do it, will benefit.
Shayne has experienced all the above and is still laughing….
And to finish off with another cliché, we have so many, that the best revenge, is to live your best life.

We know it all sounds simple, but once we experience a little touch of those moments, where we notice the difference these things help us. That is when you will thank Cody. That is what this Mateshop Podcast is all about, the road trip to nirvana for some. It will evoke a few questions, and present some answers. You choose, when you take the off ramp. Your choices put you in the lane you are in, changing lanes is totally up to you and it is up to all the people in your life, to accept and join the ride, or not.

Destiny Rescue is a formidable team of ex-army personnel that help local and federal authorities become aware of what is happening in their own back yard. Marc shares the special feeling of being a part of changing a child’s life from misery, to hope and freedom.
