She was three years old the first time someone she trusted hurt her.Adriana Jones grew up in Guatemala and later moved to Australia, where she now works in cybersecurity, using open source intelligence to find people trying to harm children before they get the chance. Her path here wasn't planned. It came after surviving her own abuse, losing her sister without warning, and watching the justice system fail her when she tried to get answers.In this conversation, Adriana takes us through what it's actually like inside the mind of a predator, the warning signs most parents miss, and why Australia's Working With Children Check only catches a small fraction of offenders. She also talks about what it took to build the Innocent Souls Project, and why she decided prevention mattered more to her than waiting on a system that had already let her down once.This episode covers heavy material, including child sexual abuse and its lasting effects.

In this conversation, she breaks down her four-dimensional healing framework, why it took her seven attempts to finally leave, how she rebuilt her identity while raising four daughters as a single mother, and how forgiveness — not forgetting — set her family free.She also gives an exclusive first look at her upcoming book, The Rebuilt Man, addressing the domestic violence and suicide crisis facing men.If you've ever felt stuck in a cycle of trauma, abuse, or self-doubt, this episode will show you it's possible to heal, and exactly where to start.This episode discusses domestic violence, abuse, and trauma.

Description:What do you do when the unthinkable happens? When Jason King lost his 18-year-old daughter Jordan to suicide in March 2023, he made a choice not to grieve in silence, but to turn that pain into purpose.In this raw and deeply moving episode of Tomorrow Is Not Today, Jason shares the full story: discovering he was a father when Jordan was already 20 months old, navigating the family court system, juggling COVID lockdowns, his wife's breast cancer diagnosis, and Jordan's mental health struggles, all at once. And then, the loss that changed everything.Now, from Broken Hill in outback New South Wales, Jason is creating the Jordan Liberty Project, a documentary film and community impact initiative aimed at opening up conversations around youth mental health, particularly in regional and remote Australia. With the Royal Flying Doctor Service as his first impact partner, and a growing coalition of local organisations behind him, Jason is proving that one person's story really can save lives.This episode is honest, practical, and deeply human. Jason talks about self-medication, sobriety, the physical foundations of mental health, and what it truly means to be kind to yourself. He also shares the moment, just three hours after his first public post when a young person messaged him to say the project may have saved their life.Whether you've experienced grief, are supporting someone who is struggling, or simply want to understand mental health in regional communities better, this conversation will stay with you.Support is available. If this episode brings up anything difficult, please reach out to Lifeline on 13 11 14 Beyond Blue on 1300 22 4636.Chapters:00:00 – Welcome & Introducing Jason King from Broken Hill 01:00 – The Jordan Liberty Project: A Documentary Born from Loss 03:00 – Acknowledging Jason's Courage to Share 05:00 – The Royal Flying Doctor Service Partnership 06:30 – Approaching Grief from a Place of Love, Not Tragedy 07:00 – Finding Out He Was a Father & Meeting Jordan for the First Time 09:00 – Family Court, Distance Parenting & the Years in Between 10:00 – Jordan Moves to Broken Hill: COVID, Breast Cancer & Crisis 12:00 – Surviving the Toughest Season: Jason's Mental Health Battles 14:00 – Self-Medication, Alcohol & the Turning Point 17:00 – The Week Jordan Died: Multiple Losses at Once 18:00 – Jordan's Journals & Knowing What to Do But Not Doing It 22:00 – The Power of Self-Kindness: Jason's Biggest Lesson 25:00 – Grief Never Leaves, But It Can Change Shape 49:00 – Laying Jordan's Ashes to Rest: The Alice Springs Journey 51:00 – Partnering with Schools, Sporting Clubs & Gravity Films 53:00 – Australia's Youth Suicide Statistics & Why They Matter 56:00 – Mental Health in the Outback: Farmers, Isolation & Remote Communities 58:00 – How to Get Involved with the Jordan Liberty Project 01:00:00 – The First Post That May Have Already Saved a Life 01:03:00 – The Community Labyrinth: A Peaceful Place for Mental Health 01:05:00 – Building a Coalition: Headspace, Lifeline, Mission Australia & More 01:06:00 – How to Create the Life You Want & Leave a Legacy You're Proud OfConnect with Jason & the Jordan Liberty Project: 🌐 jordanliberty.org 📱 Instagram, Facebook & TikTok: @JordanLibertyProject 💛 Tax-deductible donations: Documentary Australia

What does it take to pack up your life, your wife, and three children, the youngest just nine weeks old and move to a war zone?For Tim Buxton, it wasn't recklessness. It was calling.Born in the jungles of Papua to missionary parents, Tim was wired from his first breath for a life most people would never dare. In 2014, on the exact day ISIS swept across the border and two million refugees fled into Iraq's Kurdistan region, Tim's family landed at Erbil airport — wide-eyed, oblivious, and exactly where they needed to be.What followed were three and a half years of one of the most raw, costly, and profoundly human experiences you'll ever hear described. Building micro-villages for Yazidi genocide survivors. Sitting with fathers whose daughters had been sold into slavery. Midnight escapes through ISIS-held territory in a car with no air conditioning and a smuggler's stash of contraband. The weight of two million stories pressing down on one man who had no money, no government backing, and no roadmap only purpose.But this episode isn't just about war zones. It's about what happens when you come home.It's about compassion fatigue and PTSD. About depression and driving Uber at 2am. About the moment Tim realised that the refugees he'd served in Iraq had followed him to Toowoomba, Australia — and what he did when they knocked on his doorstep.It's about his organisation You Belong (youbelong.org.au), which has spent a decade turning displaced strangers into neighbours, and volunteers into people who matter.And ultimately, it's about the one question that underpins everything Tim has ever done:Do you believe a stranger is just a friend you haven't met yet?This is one of the most moving, perspective-shattering conversations we've ever had on Tomorrow Is Not Today. Stay for the whole thing. You'll leave different.Chapters00:00 I Find Peace in Chaos 00:02 Introduction 00:03 Born in the Jungle 00:05 The Gold Coast Bubble 00:06 The Day Everything Changed 00:08 The Decision to Stay 00:10 How Iraq First Called to Him 00:14 Backlash from Family and Strangers 00:18 Born for This 00:20 Do It for the One 00:22 Building Micro-Villages 00:23 The Father Whose Daughters Were Taken 00:26 Compassion Fatigue 00:35 Post-Traumatic Growth 00:38 Bitter or Better 00:42 Teaching Kids to Suffer Well 00:47 Midnight Escape 00:53 The Yazidi People 00:58 The 12-Year-Old ISIS Fighter 01:02 Humanising the Other 01:07 The Uber Driver Experiment 01:15 A Stranger is Just a Friend You Haven't Met Yet 01:18 Coming Home 01:19 You Belong 01:24 Waymakers Not Refugees 01:30 LegacyYou Belong | youbelong.org.au | @youbelongorg Tim Buxton | [email protected]

From Wrongful Conviction to Filmmaker: Mack Lindon's Unstoppable RiseMack Lindon was a registered nurse with a calling for the creative arts — until a false rape accusation at 26 shattered everything. In this raw and deeply moving conversation, Mack shares how a wrongful conviction, 19 months in maximum security prison, a retrial, and a corrupt justice system couldn't stop him from becoming a filmmaker, streaming platform founder, and storyteller fighting for truth in entertainment. From launching Rise and Rise of the Underdog (now heading to Amazon Prime) to creating Miami X — a family-friendly crime drama filmed right on the Gold Coast — and building his own streaming service MovieSense, Mack is pioneering a new way of doing things on his own terms.

At 10 years old, Karina lost her dad in a sudden accident with no support and no roadmap. Decades later, she would face something unimaginably worse — the loss of her daughter Sophie to a drowning accident, complicated by epilepsy and a seizure that came without warning on a Sunday afternoon while Karina was at the supermarket.What followed is one of the most extraordinary stories of grief, purpose, and deliberate resilience you will ever hear. Within hours of Sophie being declared brain dead, Karina chose to donate Sophie's organs — a decision made in 30 seconds that went on to save at least 10 lives. She then channelled every ounce of that loss into building something that would outlast her pain: The Sophie Effect, a children's grief program; a mentoring network for bereaved parents; speaking engagements from the Sunshine Coast Lightning netball team to 800-person forums; and eventually, a solo trek to Everest Base Camp carrying Sophie's ashes — nearly dying on the mountain before scattering them at the summit.This episode is raw, deeply honest, and filled with real strategies for surviving the unsurvivable. Karina doesn't just talk about grief — she shows you what it looks like to choose your way through it, one controlled decision at a time.00:00 Accident Aftermath Tease03:03 Podcast Welcome Intro03:55 Karina Background Legacy08:19 Epilepsy Early Seizures12:07 Pool Day Turns Tragic16:29 Hospital ICU Reality22:28 Brain Death Decision23:38 Organ Donation Choice31:13 Celebrating Sophies Life33:21 Living Life Peacefully38:37 Pushing Limits Everest40:31 Dangerous Roads Alone46:54 Bridges Panic Breakthrough50:52 Mindful Trek Beginnings51:22 Sacred Waters Lesson52:34 Unprocessed Grief Opens53:47 Monastery Tears Shift55:04 Altitude Sickness Fight57:30 Base Camp Farewell Ritual58:39 Donate Life Awareness01:01:37 Hospital Scare Aftermath01:04:34 Mentoring Through Grief01:06:38 Practical Dark Day Tools01:08:47 Letting Go Of Blame01:12:55 Senses And Control01:18:53 The Sophie Effect Mission01:21:25 Programs Awards Legacy01:26:05 Work Speaking New Projects01:29:12 Choice Legacy Closing

On the Tomorrow Is Not Today Podcast, Kingsley interviews Donna Martin, a Northern Ireland “Derry girl,” mom of three, burnout specialist, mentor, and speaker behind The Good Life Approach. Donna recounts growing up amid violence during The Troubles and being bullied after her mother left on Christmas Eve when she was four and a half, shaping years of feeling like an outsider, seeking identity through religion, then drink, drugs, and poor choices. Encouraged by two women, she pursued nursing, then faced severe antisocial harassment and death threats after buying a flat unknowingly near a drug den, leading to breakdown, bankruptcy, and a pivotal moment of spiritual guidance. After depression, a move to Australia, marriage, and further family traumas including a car accident, she refocused her work on burnout and teaches “pause, check, reset” to intentionally define and live one’s version of the good life for individuals and organizations.Chapters:00:00 Christmas Eve Abandonment00:47 Choosing the Good Life01:26 Meet Donna Martin03:11 Growing Up in Derry07:17 Mother Leaves Home12:08 Outsider and Bullying20:31 Teen Years Searching25:59 Rock Bottom Inside27:49 The Secret and Nursing30:14 Mentors Who Believed37:14 New Nurse New Nightmare39:20 Rave Outside Home41:24 Harassment Escalates43:23 Community Watch Backlash44:22 Threats And Escape45:41 Bankruptcy And Breakdown47:40 Bondi Park Sign49:42 Judge Sets Her Free53:18 From Trauma To Perth58:07 Coaching Catalyst59:10 Car Crash Reframes Work01:01:57 Burnout Signs Explained01:02:36 Pause Check Reset Method01:09:29 Programs And Who She Helps01:11:20 Legacy And ClosingConnect with DonnaDonna Martin - Burnout Specialist | Mentor | SpeakerHttps://instagram.com/thegoodlifeapproach Https://facebook.com/goodlifeapproachHttps://linkedin.com/in/thegoodlifeapproachHttps://youtube.com/@the-goodlife-approach

On the Tomorrow Is Not Today Podcast, Kingsley interviews Caroline Clarke, an ex-police officer and trauma therapist who works with women worldwide who sense something is wrong in their lives or relationships but lack language for it. Clarke explains how early childhood (0–7) encodes a “blueprint” of people-pleasing and self-abandonment that can attract controlling partners, and shares vivid memories of protecting her mother during alcohol-fueled violence, creating hypervigilance and silence. She describes how the body stores trauma, recounting a panic response en route to a knife-point hostage call that later connected to a forgotten childhood knife incident, and discusses fight/flight/freeze, breathing, shaking, and asking “How old am I?” She outlines boundaries, red flags, emotional/coercive control, and rebuilding self-trust, plus her No More Silence foundation, her book Breaking the Good Girl Code, and her Miss Australia Legacy International mission.00:00 Childhood Terror Memory01:31 Meet Caroline Clark02:44 Breaking the Good Girl Code04:22 Blueprints From Early Years06:46 Three Year Old Protector11:03 Narcissistic Control And Survival14:00 Body Keeps The Score15:12 Police Panic And Flashback19:27 Grounding In The Moment21:30 Fight Flight Freeze Explained24:25 Anger Triggers In Public26:41 Deescalation And Trauma Roles29:50 Bravery And Police Insights33:06 Freeze Versus Fight Patterns35:13 Fight or Freeze Patterns36:01 Gender Roles and Conditioning36:49 Breaking Relationship Blueprints39:26 Her Story Emotional Abuse40:54 Empty Fridge Analogy43:09 Breadcrumb Cycles and Promises47:59 Red Flags and Loneliness50:48 Rebuilding Self Trust52:44 Boundaries in Dating56:51 Reparenting the Inner Child59:05 Parenting Through Trauma01:02:55 No More Silence Mission01:05:50 Legacy and Where to Find Her

She describes factors behind Riley’s death, including Snapchat-based bullying and alleged grooming by an older supervisor, and shares how her surviving daughters are thriving, finding community through youth group and church. She promotes her book, “Resilience After Great Loss: Learning to Live and Grieve Simultaneously,” and offers copies to those who can’t afford it.00:00 Riley Lost01:11 Podcast Welcome02:14 Vulnerability Strength03:32 Childhood Trauma06:18 Raising Open Kids09:05 Parenting Lessons12:05 Midwife Mindset Work14:58 Purpose After Loss17:12 The Day She Died19:25 Saying Yes to Grief20:58 Not a Victim26:10 Resilience and Gratitude31:13 Choices in Darkness37:51 Connection Over Isolation41:47 Help Through Technology43:02 Conscious Parenting Shift46:12 Fear Fight Or Flight49:21 Bullying Grooming Story56:04 Grief Kindness Lessons01:00:10 Thriving After Loss01:10:32 Girls Find Community01:17:03 Book Legacy Closing

On the Tomorrow’s Not Today podcast, Kingsley interviews Sally Jones about her lived experience of child abuse, complex PTSD, addiction risks, and the ongoing work of healing, and how she turned that trauma into a child protection education program after 20 years as a teacher. She describes gaps in school-based prevention, lack of repetition, unsustainable one-off visits, and outdated “stranger danger” messaging and argues kids need skills for real-life encounters with perpetrators, who may be family, peers, or anyone. Grounded in attachment theory, her online, interactive program teaches grooming behaviours, boundaries, and self-trust by noticing body signals, and includes “champions” (trusted adults) plus an in-program “switch” that alerts a designated school contact to support mandatory reporting. The conversation also addresses adult recognition of abuse, trauma’s effects on relationships and emotional regulation, imposter syndrome, and seeking professional help and trusted support.00:00 Trigger Warning and Reality01:29 Podcast Welcome and Purpose03:04 Why Schools Need Better Protection04:57 Attachment Theory and Safety06:21 Her Story Childhood Trauma08:15 Nursing Forensics and PTSD11:26 Choosing Change Drugs and Alcohol15:12 Moving to Australia and Healing16:55 Program Teaches Grooming and Boundaries19:35 Champions and The Safety Switch23:23 Trauma Informed Schools and Policy24:37 Adults Healing and Recognition28:03 Living With Trauma Daily29:00 Trauma Never Leaves30:55 Choosing Your Next Step31:25 One Small Action Daily32:05 Legacy And Overwhelm33:26 Beating Imposter Syndrome36:07 Trauma Informed Practice37:40 Tenacity And Setbacks39:25 Retraumatization And Memories40:26 Reach Out For Help44:20 Masking And Fear49:13 Understanding And Body Memory51:54 Create Life And Legacy

On the Tomorrow’s Not Today podcast, Kingsley interviews Kerrie Atherton—wife, mother, grandmother, jazz musician, mental health advocate, addiction counsellor, author, podcaster, board director with Mentoring Men Australia, and ambassador for Fearless PTSD—about how childhood trauma and addiction shaped her purpose. Kerrie describes growing up with alcoholism, bipolar disorder in her mother, early traumatic events, bullying by a teacher, sexual assault by a pedophile, later rape, substance misuse, suicidality, and a near-fatal overdose. At 18, after planning to end her life and hearing a voice telling her not to, she returned to Alcoholics Anonymous and has been sober for 44 years. She discusses acceptance, delusion/denial in addiction, “54” negative consequences across love, livelihood, liver, and law, and the need for families to detach without enabling.

This spoken word metaphor of a seed becoming a flower to argue that what feels like an ending may be the beginning. It describes being buried in darkness and loneliness, then breaking through to light and encountering cycles of storms, heat, and wind that strengthen roots and growth. The pain of change, including “pruning” and shedding old protection, is framed as preparation rather than punishment, creating space for new buds and a greater purpose. The message emphasises trusting the process of life’s seasons, enduring hardship, and recognising that suffering can shape strength and beauty that impacts others—sometimes immediately, sometimes years later. It concludes that even the end of a season returns to the ground not in defeat but as nourishment for future generations, forming a lasting legacy.00:00 Buried or Planted?

On The Tomorrow Is Not Today podcast, Kingsley interviews his longtime friend Patrick, an Ohio-based husband, father of four, artist, pastor, and entrepreneur who has travelled widely doing prison outreach. Patrick recounts growing up in a broken home after his father left when he was about five, moving from Denver to inner-city Cleveland and into poverty, and later going to Colorado to find his father only to encounter severe abuse, alcoholism, drugs, and violence. Feeling unseen, he lashed out and returned to Cleveland angrier, quickly entering crime and substance use. At 16 he was arrested on five counts of kidnapping, aggravated robbery with a gun, and a home invasion, facing a minimum of 45 years, and while incarcerated learned his brother Larry—who had not been in trouble—was stabbed to death; his best friend was stabbed in the heart and survived but remains blind and paralysed. The killer avoided prison, had political connections, was given the knife back in court, and later became a police officer, prompting Patrick to plan revenge until he heard a voice in his cell telling him it would not honor his brother. Patrick describes choosing forgiveness—also forgiving himself—through an intense spiritual experience in solitary confinement and later through therapy focused on healing his inner child. He explains he avoided adult court after telling the judge the truth, accepting responsibility, and apologising to victims; the judge kept him in the juvenile system, reducing potential time to about four and a half years. In prison he pursued education and skills, then was released with a condition he return to Colorado, where he connected with a supportive church community (where he met Kingsley) that helped him rebuild his life. Patrick says his purpose is tied to his deepest wounds and describes creating businesses (coffee shops and construction) that employ only people coming out of prison or drug treatment, citing an 87% success rate and emphasising that many incarcerated people have unresolved childhood trauma. He shares an example of “Big Al,” a large, institutionalised former violent offender who had never had a birthday celebrated; after Patrick and an Australian team threw him a surprise birthday and symbolically burned his prison items, Al’s life changed and he has not returned to prison or harmed anyone in over 10 years. The episode closes with Patrick’s guidance on legacy: recognise your inherent worth and the brevity of life, find what makes you feel alive, and use your gifts for something bigger than yourself that benefits others.00:00 Wounded to Purpose: The Pain That Shaped My Calling01:14 Welcome to the Podcast + Meet Patrick (Husband, Dad, Pastor, Entrepreneur)03:14 Childhood in a Broken Home: Poverty, Identity, and Growing Up Unseen06:54 Colorado Reality Check: Alcoholism, Abuse, and the Dream Dad That Wasn’t09:18 Lashing Out for Attention: The Gun Incident and Fleeing Back to Cleveland14:36 Street Life Spiral: Drugs, Violence, and the Arrest at 1616:18 Tragedy Behind Bars: Brother’s Murder, Injustice, and the Pull of Revenge19:05 The Turning Point: Hearing God, Choosing Fuel Over Fire, and Learning Forgiveness25:06 Forgiving Yourself First: Grace, Therapy, and Healing the Inner Child33:42 Redefining Success: Purpose, Legacy, and the ‘Hard Worker’ Funeral Warning36:22 More Than Nice Stuff: Legacy, Purpose & Serving Others38:54 How Patrick Got Out Early: Owning the Truth in Court41:38 Prison as a Training Ground: Turning Pain Into Growth42:37 Back to Colorado: Doubters, Fresh Start & Finding Community47:56 The Power of Presence: Hospitality That Changes Lives50:35 Purpose From Pain: Building Second-Chance Businesses53:51 Big Al’s Story: Being Seen for the First Time01:04:31 Final Takeaways: Worth, Brevity of Life & Living Without Regret
