This week I speak with former professional skateboarder, exceptional artist, husband and father, Mr Sidney Tapia. Sid joins me live from his Art Gallery in Brisbane, Australia, to take us on a deep, authentic, and often raw journey, through his life so far.  Sid reflects on his tumultuous childhood and teens years, the challenges of being a child of migrant parents who divorced when he was 3 years of age, finding art as his place of solace, navigating a liveable income as a sponsored skateboarder in the 90s, being contracted to draw murals for sports organisations such as the NRL and the UFC,  his innate desire to be of service to others, finding his faith in God, and much much more.
Despite Sid's rich history in Skateboarding, we don't really talk much about it in this episode. I assume this will be disappointing to some, however, his charismatic tales of redemption, hope and love, are much more engaging and enriching in my opinion. He analyses the human condition we all endure with vigour. He strips back the layers, sifts through the shit, and comes out clean on the other side...Just for today anyway.   
I love this episode. And I love Sid. You will too.
