#51- Greg Page - Backstage with The Original Yellow Wiggle

Greg Page is the Original Yellow Wiggle, an International Entertainment Icon and the founder of Heart of The Nation. 

On this episode of the podcast Dos and D are joined by one of their absolute childhood heroes. 

Greg shares with us his earliest memories of entertaining, how The Wiggles were formed and tales from the road. 

It is mind blowing to think how big The Wiggles are. This year is their 30th year anniversary, they are in over 100 countries, have sold over 23 million DVD's, on average perform to over 1 million people per year, have had over 2 billion YouTube streams and have sold out Madison Square Garden 12 shows over. (Coldplay in comparison managed only 3) 

But our chat with Greg went a lot deeper than just The Wiggles. Greg opened up about the man behind the yellow skivvy. 

Greg went deep when talking about finding spirituality especially after his health battles. It was humbling to see this side of him which we don't see in the media.

We learned about his passion for happiness, education and staying true to who you are. While also having a laugh with some quick fire questions about all areas of his life! 

Greg's passion nowadays is with Heart of The Nation. An initiative he created after his life was so nearly taken from him last year at a Wiggles Reunion concert for bushfire relief when he suffered a sudden cardiac arrest. Scarily, showing no symptoms before the incident occurred. 

Greg is a true leader and a wonderful ambassador as you can hear in his voice the passion he has to save lives by raising awareness in the community. He shares with us how we can all get behind this excellent initiative and the work they are doing behind the scenes. 

Greg is extremely humble, wise and generous with his time and we can't thank him enough for the experience. We are so grateful and it truly meant the world to us to be able to share some time with someone who we have looked up to and admired our entire lives.
