Stronger After the Storm

Real talk for men over 50 rebuilding life after a heart attack.

Hi there — I’m Dougie. I’m very happy to say I have eleven episodes of Stronger After the Storm now live.
These talks are real — from my own recovery, fear, and finding strength again after my heart attack.
If you’ve been through it or you’re still finding your feet, you’ll hear something familiar.
👉 Listen to the Episodes — on Spotify, Apple, and Amazon and any other major podcast streaming platforms. Start here with my first episodes and please leave me a valuable comment to help me always improve. And if you do find value in what I have to share, then please share with someone close to you or a mate who may just be needing a little comfort in their own recovery and rebuilding. Thanking you so much for being here and helping me help others.
