A JOURNEY WITH BERNIE is so much more than an established, internationally recognised Podcast spanning 50 countries. It is an evolving way of life and you, dear friends, are invited to be adventurous explorers with us. Despite constant media-driven advertisements defining ‘success’ as material acquisition and a life-centered around 40 years of incessant, often stressful, empire building work generating six figure bank accounts and million-dollar assets, Bernie K and co believe that there might just be another way. No, we are not budding Buddhas seeking liberation! To the contrary, our point-of-difference, lies in our role not as experts, but as simple people, who like you, are prospecting for actions, strategies, and routines that will inspire constant joy and an enhanced capacity to love self, life and all people. There lies the purpose of the podcast! It’s a purpose we share every Friday with well-chosen guests, some of whom are public figures once featured on the front page of your daily newspaper, while others are yet to be discovered by Google. Some are experts and others are the ‘person next door’. It doesn't matter, for it is through their life stories, that we as a community poke, prod, dig and discover answers to the one question we all ask … WHAT BRINGS REAL MEANING and VALUE TO OUR LIFE? This podcast is fast becoming a global phenomena and is already making an immense difference to people’s lives and to the connectedness of all people across the globe. One push of the SUBSCRIBER and FOLLOWER button will ensure that your life becomes enriched by every episode of A JOURNEY WITH BERNIE. Join the revolution !

86. Foster Parenting + Cancer = Fear and Isolation. "Where do I turn" asked Neville Stone.

Neville Stone, together with his precious partner Justine Baker are foster parents to 4 siblings giving them foundation, life and purpose. Their incredible story was captured in Episode 52. The JOURNEY WITH BERNIE community was in awe of their generosity and servitude. Their story gave us multiple messages and reminders of what it means to live with loving hearts.

Then came last week's phone call and threatening news.

Justine was diagnosed with Breast Cancer and no guarantees. This is why Neville reached out to us. He felt lost. In his own words, he was crumbling under the pressure. He felt Fear ... Fear of loss ... Fear of the future. He felt hopeless, not knowing where to turn. We are so fortunate that he turned to A JOURNEY WITH BERNIE, for in doing so he has inspired this riveting podcast focusing on Men's Wellbeing.

We needed some expertise, and we were well aware of Tony Groom's passion and concern from Episode #3, for Men's Health issues. He has long been an advocate of numerous Wellbeing Retreats run by men for men and sees transparent mateship as crucial for men's mental and spiritual strength. His presence on this podcast was so valuable.

Join Neville Stone, Tony Groom and host Bernie K for an exploration of what men need to do to ensure their mental and spiritual health is strong ... that they can cope with the pressures and strains of life ... and why it is perfectly ok to let go of one's machoism and present as vulnerable and human.

You will find this podcast different. It is a live example of how two mates came together for their friend to help him in his time of need. It is a case study and a real time example of how men can support men. The real-life counsel and dialogue make this a riveting episode.

Women who care for their struggling men will gain so much from the wisdoms that are captured over the next 50 minutes.

Please remember, your thoughts and feedback are so valuable.
