Give Pizza a Chance: Matthew Taylor Changes the Story for Young People in Trouble

When youth trouble in his town kept making headlines, local business owner Matthew Taylor chose a different response. Instead of calling for punishment, he approached the young people involved and invited them to try something else — running a pizza service. What followed wasn’t perfect, but it was real. Through earning money, making decisions, and being seen differently by their community, something began to shift. This episode explores what happens when young people are offered trust instead of rejection — and how small acts of belief can begin to change a story.

Off-Route: An Adventure Mindset - Will Corbett's Story

For Will, adventure isn’t just about mountains, van life, or travelling the world — it’s a way of thinking. In this episode of Hear My Voice, Will shares how choosing adventure shaped his perspective on risk, success, and what it really means to live fully. From saying yes to last-minute opportunities to handling high-consequence moments on rock faces, he explains how stepping into uncertainty has built resilience, confidence, and clarity about what matters to him. This conversation isn’t about running away from responsibility. It’s about redefining security, backing yourself, and understanding that there’s more than one way to build a meaningful life. Because sometimes adventure isn’t a place you go — it’s a mindset you choose.
