His own political party refused even to consider him as a candidate—but he refused to give up.
In this honest and deeply personal podcast conversation, a Victorian politician shares his journey from growing up in a single-parent household and experiencing constant financial pressure to surviving political rejection and finally entering Parliament.
He opens up about moving repeatedly during childhood, struggling to make ends meet and the powerful influence of his mother, who taught him to reject injustice and treat everyone with dignity. He also reveals why losing repeatedly became one of his greatest lessons—and how to recognise the difference between perseverance and delusion.
The conversation explores some of the biggest issues facing Victoria today, including:
• Victoria’s growing government debt
• Major infrastructure cost overruns
• Political and ministerial accountability
• Energy security and energy independence
• Coal, gas, nuclear power and emerging technologies
• Childcare safety and government oversight
• Public safety and concerns affecting Victorian families
• Taxes affecting small and medium-sized businesses
• The changing political landscape and One Nation
• Social media’s growing influence on politics
• What voters should examine before supporting a candidate
• Rejection, resilience and the courage to try again
The guest argues that Victorians should care less about what politicians say and pay closer attention to what they actually do.
Do actions speak louder than words in politics? And how many times would you be willing to lose before trying again?
