The gathering is designed to feel like the kind of chat that naturally happens at a pub: honest, informal, and without pressure to perform, agree, or participate beyond listening.
The chat will be led by Trent Brock, cancer coach and author, who brings lived experience from his journey through hip, lung, and pancreatic cancer. Trent will share what life looked like during diagnosis and treatment, how he rebuilt his life afterward, and the tools, perspective, and mindset shifts that helped him move forward.
Joining him is Cliff Sinclair, who brings lived experience from long-term traumatic brain injury (TBI), including the lasting effects of childhood trauma and PTSD. Cliff is passionate about advocacy and awareness, particularly the importance of recognizing and supporting kids early — before those experiences quietly follow them into adulthood.
Together, they’ll explore what life looks like after serious illness and trauma — the parts people rarely talk about publicly, but often carry privately.
This chat is open to anyone personally affected by cancer, brain injury, trauma, or major life change — as well as partners, friends, and family members who want to better understand what that journey can look like.
Guests are encouraged to arrive early, grab a seat, order food or drinks, and listen — or join the conversation if it feels right.
After the chat, Trent will be available at a back table for anyone who’d like to continue the conversation or pick up a signed copy of his book.
