EP 37 - From Trauma to Triumph: Building Pryde Support with Elliott

In this soul-stirring episode of Music, Spirit, and Accountability, we sit down with Elliott, founder of Pryde's Support, to explore his deeply personal journey from surviving childhood trauma and mental health struggles to creating one of Queensland’s most inclusive and transformative support services.

Elliott shares how a breaking point led to the founding of a service that now empowers queer, neurodivergent, and forensicly qualified participants with dignity and compassion.

We talk about balancing humanity with accountability, the stigma faced by those reintegrating after incarceration, and why giving second chances can change lives, including our own.

Plus, Elliott opens up about his own connection to music and how a few garage-band memories and a powerful PINK ballad helped shape his healing.

This one’s raw, real, and revolutionary.
