This Comeback is not about a reversal of famous misfortune. This Comeback is about you. Now you maybe a Father, Son, Husband, Wife, Daughter, Friend that had joy once in those relationships, but it may have slipped away and you’re looking for another chance bigger and better than before. This Comeback is about overcoming health issues, relationships breakdowns, business failures. This Comeback is written to help you on your way to putting that Championship belt of “life” and “Love” back on.

You see back in the late early 1950’s Mum was a very talented Girl, she had an incredible voice and would appear and win many talent quests that were held live on radios beamed out throughout Melbourne. Radio station 3AW had a program that was called the Amateur Hour sort of like an “Old days” Australian Idol. You would sing and people would call in and combined with the Live audience vote for you. On one particular night Mum truly wowed them and actually won the event. I had heard this so many times during my years of growing up. As time went on them Mum’s thoughts of fame were still there but the passion for Mum to sing again got less and less and in the end it was just a distant memory.
But now at this moment it becomes a huge excitement of thought for my Mum, as for me? I didn’t know it at the time but it would also become a major driver in my life.
