Stevie Belshaw: Rebuilding from within.
Listen now
Description
This week on The Burnt Chef Journal, Kris Hall is joined by Stevie Belshaw. A hospitality professional who suffered a brain injury, fractured vertebrae, broken ribs, punctured lung, and a bleed in his spinal cord after colliding with a lorry on his way to work, whilst working in Sydney during his gap year.   Following the incident, Stevie spent the next 6 months learning how to do everything again, from walking and talking to baking brownies.   As the result of his brain injury, Stevie suffered periods of manic episodes and low mood swings.   Now 10 years on and working full time in his own cafe, Stevie now knows what will trigger his episodes - pressure. He has put steps in place to reduce the pressure on the kitchen as a whole, for not only himself but for the wellbeing of his team also.   Take a listen, as Stevie talks about the accident, his recovery, and where he'd like to see himself in the future.    Stevie would also like to thank Royal Rehab Hospital in Australia for their support and knowledge throughout his recovery.
