Survivor Stories
By Survivor Stories
Hello and welcome, My name is Jacob Little, and I thought I would start a podcast for survivors. When I say survivors, I mean survivors of child abuse, institutional child abuse, survivors of addiction, survivors of the prison system and survivors of domestic violence. Been a survivor of abuse and having lived experience of the prison system. I thought I would start this safe space so all survivors can listen and tune in. I hope people can relate to Survivor Stories, and we can work together to create a safer place for children and survivors. If you would like to tell your story, hit me up.

Survivor Stories: Richard Brooking
My name is Jacob Little and I created this podcast as a safe space for survivors. I have dedicated my life to supporting and advocating for survivors.
When I say survivors, I am talking about survivors of child abuse, institutional child abuse, survivors of addiction, survivors of the prison system and survivors of domestic violence.
-
I am survivor of abuse, with a lived experience of the prison system, intergenerational trauma and I also know firsthand what it's like to lose a parent to the system.
-
I have also learned to thrive and am grateful everyday to be in a position to support others who have lived, or are living, through the same things.
-
I love my life today. I stay out of trouble and understand why I ended up in that lifestyle.
I've reunited with my father who I lost when I was 10 to the system and I've overcome addiction. I train everyday, I take care of my health and I'm working daily to see change in the world.
-
I started this podcast after being humbled and inspired by many other survivor stories and hearing how people have found healing, justice and peace after what they lived through.
-
This is a safe and supportive space for survivors and those that support them.
-
Listen, speak up, tune in. - -
Richard's passion for social justice comes from his lived experience, spending over a decade involved in selling and manufacturing drugs, going to prison, and rehabilitating himself. After being released from prison, Richard obtained a Bachelor of Business, a Bachelor of Laws, and a Master of Business in Philanthropy and Nonprofits. Armed with his education and knowledge of rehabilitation, Richard’s career goal is to become an expert in creating positive social change.
Richard is also the managing director of his adopted family’s social justice and land conservation foundation charity. The charity has constructed premises for community groups to run drug, alcohol, and community integration services, and provided grants for local conservation and first nations projects. Furthermore, owning various land assets spanning up to Noosa, providing housing and business opportunities for First Nations people.
