This weeks episode is joined by Ryan Tyrrell, a former professional rugby player and cop. I met Ryan about 7 months ago and had the pleasure of coaching him through a hard time in his life. He struggled with an addiction to opioids, alcohol, undiagnosed OCD and an unhealed inner child. Being the first client on this podcast, I felt like it was only right I give him the floor to share his inspiring story through his personal development into the man he is today.

We discuss:

Journey to becoming a professional rugby player
Father trauma & growth
Achieving life long goals & not getting the gratification expected
Neck injury & recovery
Being diagnosed with OCD & family history of mental health
Reaching a personal breaking point & considering suicide
Surviving addiction
How medication saved Ryan's life
Advice to people who people please & deal with addiction
Reestablishing a relationship with his inner child
