In this episode…
It’s a milestone episode for The Front Garden as Adam Hompas takes the reins as host for the very first time. A landscaper by trade and long-time supporter of the show, Adam steps into the role with a powerful conversation featuring Kurt Everard from TIACS (This Is A Conversation Starter).
TIACS provides free, professional mental health counselling to Australia’s blue-collar workers.
Born out of the TradeMutt workwear movement, their mission is simple: break the stigma, make conversations easier, and ensure support is just a call or text away.
In Adam’s debut episode, he and Kurt explore:
- The story that inspired TradeMutt and TIACS.
- Why approachable leadership can make or break an apprentice’s experience.
- How small changes in workplace culture can reduce “head noise.”
- Why a text saying “hello” can be the first step to support.
- The future of TIACS and mental health conversations in blue-collar industries.
A powerful first outing for Adam as host, this episode shines a light on the conversations that truly matter.
