We thought it'd be great to keep the discussions going from Man Week by having Michael Colling as a special guest on the ROtreat forums.
Who is Michael Colling you may ask?

Michael has backgrounds in both education and community services and has had over a decade of professional experience working with young people.
Michael’s first book, The Other Side of Blue, was published in 2007 to much acclaim. The anthology of short stories aimed to give hope to young people facing advesity and featured a number of high-profile personalities, with write-ups about the book spreading as far as university newspapers in the US.
