“Alright legends — welcome back to Episode 32, Part 2: Les Walker — The Man that Keeps Turning Up. In Part 1 we went back to the kid before the titles — the early jobs, the first hard hits, and that lesson to rise above when the rock-throwers come. Now we step into the turning point.The moment you realise people are watching… and what you do starts to matter beyond you. Les talks about coaching a mixed kids’ soccer team — boys and girls learning confidence together — six years undefeated. Then a window of opportunity: invited by his old school teacher Tony Mooney to step up in local government.No polish. Shy public speaker. Door-knocking. Seniors groups. Lions clubs. Schools. Getting into the fabric of the community and building belief by doing the work. We get into purpose — your why — and what it actually costs to keep showing up: time, money, family, mental toll. We talk about owning mistakes, not playing it safe, and why the motto is ‘Jobs on. Life’s good.’And yes — the online noise, the headlines, the faceless profiles… and how to rise above it. If Part 1 was the foundation, Part 2 is the step up: influence, responsibility, and the price you pay to lead. Let’s get back into it.”
