Hi there!
There are so many people who inspire me along this journey and one is Michael Stangel. What would you do if you were given a life changing diagnosis? Many may crumble, but Michael refused to believe that he had a few months left to live. His mindset has seen him defy the odds. 7 years later he’s still thriving.
Also on this episode, I get to visit the jaw dropping Jackalope on the Mornington Peninsula, I check out a life changing detox place on the Gold Coast, we get to announce the recipient of our ultimate theme park holiday and I meet an amazing woman by the name of Cindy Cattach who is an absolute angel in the equine world.
Tune in Saturday November 30th at 12pm on Channel 9 and Sunday December 8th On Nine Life.
Hope you love watching as much as we loved making it!
On this weeks show…
Happy People
Mike Stangel has lived the rock and roll lifestyle to the fullest. He’s a singer, songwriter, musician and record producer, but Mike was hit with the tragic news that he only had three months to live. That was seven years ago and Mike continues to baffle doctors with his story of resilience and attitude of “they were wrong, I’m not going to die.”
