This is a tough one, Fano.

One of the hardest conversations I've ever had, but it's an important one.

Just sat down, had a powerful conversation with the man behind the road to healing Aotearoa, Sam.

I mean, this guy has walked the length of our country.

Then, you know, after having this conversation with him, I know exactly what's driving him.

is to raise awareness around sexual abuse.

This incident that happened to him from 9 to 13 from this coward, it derailed his life and sent him on this crazy journey.

Interstate care as a kid, only to be abused some more, into prisons, meth addiction.

And I'm just thinking, fuck.

Look, it's a, it's a must watch.

For people going through something now, for people who have gone through it, for parents, we must watch this.

We must share it far and wide because it's an important conversation that must be heard.

Unfiltered is produced by the team at Fanaticals and we are part of the ACAST network.

Sam, how's it going my brother?

Good my bro, thanks for having me here brother.

Man, it's been a while in the making this podcast.

I had a look back at our Instagram messages and jeez, they go right back to 2022, like four years ago.

Yeah, you know, when you first mentioned that, you know, seeing what you're up to, do you want to tell everyone, you know, the road to healing Aotearoa?

Yeah, well, you know.

When I first saw the story that you shared, you were walking the length, right, of New Zealand?
