We welcome back Patrick O'Gorman to the podcast. This is a very moving and personal episode, as Patrick reveals his own story regarding the Black Saturday Bushfires.

This was one of the worst bushfires in Australia’s history, where on Saturday, the 7th of February, 2009 - this fire destroyed 450,000 hectares of land, injured 414 humans and over 1 million animals were lost. The most horrendous part was that 173 people were killed, three of those being Patrick’s mother, father and younger brother. In the matter of minutes, the lives of Patrick and his twin sister would never be the same.

Patrick discusses that one dark Saturday in February including the aftermath and attempt to return to normal life. His talks about emotional shock, trauma, adversity and what lessons he has learnt from that dreadful day twelve years on.
