Remember when 2021 was supposed to be better than last year?

Well for lots of Australians this has been the toughest year of their lives. 

In this special episode of Bounce Back Dr Andrew Rochford talks with one of Australia's leading psychiatrists, Dr Gordon Parker, about surviving lockdown and coming out stronger as we slowly emerge from the covid crisis. 

The Bounce Back series has featured some of Australia’s most recognised sports men and women, prominent businesspeople and well-known politicians, as they share their stories of resilience and overcoming adversity.  

Bounce Back is about promoting well-being and good mental health, by showing that even in the most difficult of times, there are people who you can turn to for support - whether they’re mates, family, colleagues, professionals even your neighbours.

It’s about how to look after yourself when things are tough, believing in yourself and knowing you can come through it even stronger.

There’s no doubt a lot of us are feeling a bit lost or struggling at the moment.

Well you’re not alone. In Bounce Back, Andrew talks to prominent Australians about major challenges that have been thrown their way, and how they’ve overcome these difficulties on the road to success.

What is the only difference between people who have wholehearted fulfilled lives and those who don't? Those who lived fulfilled lives, believed they were worthy of it. That is according to professional mentor and performance mindset coach Ben Crowe. 

Ben has worked with some of the world's most prolific athletes. 

His work with Ash Barty is seen as pivotal in her finding the enjoyment in Tennis that spurred her to climb to World Number One. 

His work with Richmond Football Club Captain Trent Cotchin and Coach Damien Hardwick, who've led their team to two Premiership victories. 

His work helping Australian Cricketers move beyond their recent dark days through humility, perspective and sense of purpose. 

His work with Tennis star Andre Agassi. His work with World Surfing Champ Stephanie Gilmore. The list goes on. 

It may seem strange, but one of Ben's secrets to achieving happiness, confidence and success in life is to embrace imperfection. Be vulnerable. Be genuine. 

In this last episode, Ben gives us his unique perspective on our guests and provides some insights based on his experience to help you Bounce Back.

In this episode Dr. Rochford speaks with Jacqui Lambie.

Senator Jacqui Lambie is one of the most recognisable faces in Australian politics. Her determination to 'tell it how it is' has been shaped by years of experiences, setbacks and challenges. 

Senator Lambie served in the military for eleven years until 2000 where a debilitating back injury led to a medical discharge. She then struggled to raise her two boys on her own in the North-West of Tasmania. Fighting the Department of Veteran's Affairs for fair compensation while drinking heavily and addicted to prescription drugs. 

After being hospitalised and spending time in a Hobart Psychiatric Ward, she deliberately walked out in front of a car. This was rock bottom but also a turning point.

Fast forward to 2013 and Jacqui Lambie became Senator Lambie, elected to Parliament as a member of the Palmer United Party and fast became one of the most recognisable faces in Canberra. 

In 2015 Senator Lambie struck a chord with thousands of parents across Australia when she told Parliament that her son was addicted to ice. 

Since then she has resigned from Parliament, went onto Reality TV show to finance her election campaign and was re-elected to the Senate in 2019.

In this episode Dr. Rochford speaks with Richmond Tigers Captain Trent Cotchin.

In 2016 The Richmond Football Club was in the dumps, finishing thirteenth. It is fair to say the fans weren't happy with some wanting to overthrow the Board and the Coach and Captain in the media firing line.

Whether Trent Cotchin was cut out to be a leader was a regular talking point, Trent himself had doubts. One year later Richmond FC are AFL Premiers, breaking a 37 Premiership drought. They followed up with another Grand Final victory in 2019.

Their Captain was then and remains Brownlow Medalist and three-time Richmond Best & Fairest Winner Trent Cotchin.
