Welcome to Season 2, Episode 7 of Together We Grow, recorded on the land of the Wiradjuri people, Traditional Custodians of this land.

In this meaningful episode, Karen talks with Jon, program manager at Boys to the Bush, about the vital work this grassroots organisation does to support vulnerable boys across regional NSW and Victoria.

Jon shares how Boys to the Bush began and how it has grown into a safe, welcoming space that empowers boys with practical life skills, guidance, and belonging. He offers powerful insights into how mentoring boosts boys’ confidence and resilience, and shares personal stories of challenges, triumphs, and transformation.

This conversation reminds us of the simple but life-changing impact that time, compassion, and positive role models can have.

Tune in for heartfelt stories, practical advice, and a hopeful message about the power of connection — and how we can help shape a brighter future for our boys.

After two heartfelt seasons of Together We Grow, we're pressing pause.
