Construction Matters: Building Wellbeing, One Story at a Time
Welcome to Construction Matters, the podcast where mental health and wellbeing are at the heart of every conversation. In the world of construction, we often face unique challenges, and here, no topic is off-limits.
In each episode, we bring you heartfelt, real-life stories from our diverse Australian construction family. We delve into the struggles and triumphs, focusing on the experiences that shape the mental health and wellbeing of the incredible individuals who build our world.
Construction Matters is created for you, by you, to support you. We explore the current state and future of our amazing industry, always with a focus on the people who make it all possible. Your host, a genuine construction worker who started on the shovel and worked up to senior management, never forgets the journey or his roots.
Join us as we build a community of support, resilience, and understanding. Tune in, be inspired, and remember – you are never alone in this journey. Together, let's build a brighter future, one story at a time.

John Hutchinson (Hutcho) People Matters
Come and join me and have a listen to what leadership truly means - service to others and how this amazing human has dedicated his life in supporting many people from superstars in the NRL to the everyday people, in communities and the emerging youth of today.
There is so much more i could tell you about my new best mate Hutcho - but you will just have to listen for yourself.
The Audio of me is a little patchy in some parts, a problem I have now fixed for future podcasts - but Hutcho's message is clear !
