Welcome to BRAVE, a podcast from the Townsville Community Information Centre.

Michael Prien knows what it's like to be doubted and ruled out. He also knows that, sometimes, the only thing a person needs is a chance. That's exactly what he's trying to do with his electrical contracting business CBD Electrical, where he is dedicated to taking on Indigenous apprentices to help built a brighter future. He's passionate about young people, the future, culture, and ensuring high standards of quality, and all of that comes through in this episode.

Michael's story is just one of the many from our local community that we hope will inspire you.
