    Episode 16 | Dr Paul Wood

    From convicted murderer to internationally respected psychologist, resilience expert, keynote speaker, and bestselling author, Dr Paul Wood shares one of New Zealand's most extraordinary stories of redemption. In this powerful episode of Stand Up Again, Dr Paul takes Sophie and Nick back to his troubled childhood, the devastating loss of his mother, addiction, gang culture, and the choices that led to spending more than a decade in some of New Zealand's toughest prisons. But this isn't just a story about prison. It's a conversation about ownership, identity, resilience, and the remarkable power of education to transform a life. Paul explains how shifting from a victim mindset to one of personal responsibility became the foundation for rebuilding his future.  While in prison, he earned an undergraduate degree and a Master's degree, and began his PhD before completing it after his release. Today, he is an internationally recognised resilience expert, keynote speaker, and author, working with major brands and global organisations to help individuals and teams build resilience, unlock potential, and perform at their best. A deeply honest and inspiring conversation about hope, healing, second chances, and what it truly means to stand up again. This is a Frank Podcast. Hosted on Acast.

    What does it take to turn adversity into an extraordinary life? In this powerful episode of Stand Up Again, Sophie and Nick Rado are joined by internationally acclaimed comedian, actor and impressionist Craig Gass. Known for Family Guy, Sex and the City, King of Queens and The Howard Stern Show, Craig shares the remarkable story behind his success.

But behind the laughter was a long battle with drug and alcohol addiction, a heart attack at 32, relapse, and the difficult road to lasting sobriety. Packed with hilarious impressions, behind-the-scenes stories from Hollywood, and honest conversations about resilience, recovery and purpose, Craig reveals how he rebuilt his life and career after addiction. This is an inspiring episode about perseverance, second chances, and finding the courage to stand up again. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Episode 13 | Constable Bryan Ward

    Senior Constable Bryan Ward is one of New Zealand’s most respected police officers. A Queen’s Service Medal recipient and co-creator of the children’s series Bryan and Bobby, he has spent nearly three decades serving communities nationwide. But his life of service began with heartbreak. At 24, Bryan was blindsided by the end of a five-year relationship that left him shattered and directionless.

    Episode 10 | Gloria Masters

Through courage and relentless advocacy, she has become a powerful voice for change, helping to reshape laws and support systems for others. Gloria reflects on the complexity of healing, the ongoing work, the setbacks, and the strength it takes to keep going. Her journey is not about overcoming and moving on, but about reclaiming power, finding purpose, and using her voice to create impact.

    Episode 9 | Mark Richardson

    Mark Richardson’s career has unfolded across three distinct chapters, from representing the Black Caps, to becoming a mainstay in New Zealand broadcasting for over two decades, to now stepping into the world of financial advising. But the transitions weren’t seamless. Behind the profile and perceived success were moments of burnout, pressure, and professional setbacks, none more impactful than his departure from The AM Show, which forced him to confront identity beyond the screen. In this episode, Mark reflects on what it takes to pivot not once, but multiple times, and the resilience required to rebuild in the public eye. From embracing discomfort to retraining later in life, he shares a grounded perspective on letting go of what was and backing yourself to begin again, even when everyone thinks they already know your story.
