We've formed a Standup Paddle squad to tackle (Virtual) Molokai 2 Oahu, a 26km "rites of passage" open ocean paddle on the 26th July 2020Our mission - To create awareness for Invisible Injuries charitable cause of bettering the wellbeing and mental health of veterans, first responders and their immediate support experiencing Post Traumatic Stress.Our goal - to fundraise $5,000 to build our "all-in-one" database resource that will serve as the headquarters for our online presence, activities & programs and ex-services organisation hub.In this special podcast episode, founder & veteran Andy Fermo chats with Tom Molloy about: accepting his aspiring sporting career was cut short due to injury, seeking new purpose through self-development, repurposing the tools in your toolkit, the importance of meaningful social engagement through group activity and support networks. Tom also shares his message "if you try a group and they aren't your people or cup-of-tea, then go seek another and another until you find one that fits YOU"Tom also touches on Activate Body's S.M.A.R.T (Strength Movement All-body Resistance Training) method, the squad training and preparation for our big paddle._______________________________________________________________________________Follow our stories through our socials and campaign website (coming soon)Facebook - Invisible Injuries)Facebook - Activate Body)_______________________________________________________________________________Contact - Tom MolloyLocation - Level 1, 22 Duke Street, Sunshine Beach (Noosa), Queensland, AustraliaWebsite - https://activatebody.com.au/)Phone - (07) 5641 1755Email - [email protected] Lines Open Arms (VVCS)) | Lifeline) | RedSix app)Music Credits - John Lynam "Took for granted" - WAR E.P)"RESPECT, NO POLITICS, WE'RE VOLUNTEERS"Disclaimer: The accounts and stories are "Real lived experiences" of our guests some of the content may trigger Post Traumatic Stress (PTS) symptoms in some of our audience.
