After serving twelve years in the Royal Australian Navy from the age of fifteen, Mick entered civilian life with no idea of where he was headed. Newly married, he entered the sales field and over the years achieved many successes but always felt something was missing. In 1999 as a gift for his son Ben on his twentyfirst birthday, he wrote a book, The Secrets to Life, as a way of a guide to living a fulfilling life. In reality, Mick was writing it for himself.
Years went by and Mick was still trying to discover himself. With a multitude of 'self help' books, tapes and seminars behind him, in 2006, he decided to produce and present a radio show on the local public radio station. The show appropriately named, The Secrets to Life, is broadcast for one hour every week and features inspirational stories, uplifitng music and interviews with people who have a positive story to tell.
Mick's journey of self discovery whilst never ending has seen him arrive at a point in his life that allows him to share with others the insights he has gained over the years. This has led to his book, The Secrets to Life being published in audio form. The hard copy with accompanying cd of his best interviews will be released later in the year.
