In this week’s episode, I take you inside Weekend at Timmy’s - the tropical skate gathering of the year in Airlie Beach, North Queensland. Event organisers Lachie Abbott and Tim Hazelton join me via phone to share their reflections and insights about the unique event that it was.
Alongside the stories from the weekend, I explore the deeper theme of forgiveness: why it’s so hard, how resentment eats away at us, and what letting go can mean in pursuit of a better life.
Enjoy,
Shan
