Lou and Darcy discuss Darcy's colourful, wonderful, uplifting and magical but also traumatic life story. Darcy tells us about the importance of the elders, his father's influence and their special bond. Darcy discusses fostering 150 children! His relationships with his kids, the students at the school where he works. He talks about the juvenile justice system and school exclusions, the influence of drugs that are ripping through the Aboriginal communities. All of this has an Aboriginal mental health lens cast over and Darcy shows his deep understanding, lived experience of mentoring, guiding and embracing those with neuro-differences and mental health challenges within his community. Darcy is also known as "Buddy Oldman", legend boxing champion! What a champion and all round delightful person he really is. Lou was really privileged to have Darcy on the podcast!
