Life can be messy and, at times, super hard to navigate. Strength In Lunacy is a podcast journey between two guys who don't have it all together. But, through our journey and the many inspiring people we have around us, we want to be able to give hope, practical help, share life stories, and encourage others to do better. We want to create strength out of the mess, and strength from the lunacy.
Introducing Henry Caccia-Birch Robinson. A close friend of the show and an episode you don't want to miss. We hope you get so much from his story as Henry unpacks with us his journey on life this far. Just an everyday bloke, sportsman and now police man who’s found himself in tough situations and had to figure out healthy coping mechanisms for himself, so as to not continue the cycle of abuse gone before him.

With the coroner’s report out this week in New Zealand, we thought it was a good time to release one of our banked episodes on counselling.

In this talk we cross some topics that may be triggering for you. If so, please don't hesitate to speak to a licensed professional and reach out and ask for help.
