'I am who I am' with Ollie Lawrence

In episode 9 of 'Wind Yer Neck In' we welcome the young and hugely talented Worcester Warriors and England Centre Ollie Lawrence to the show. Ollie talks early life, social media hype around him and how he and his family shielded and prepared him for that. Ollie then discusses the rapid transition into senior professional rugby and how that experience fed his hunger to be the best centre in the world. Ollie then reflects on a time in his life when he need to show huge amount of resilience and mental toughness with an ankle injury that put his career in doubt. Working towards the present, Ollie talks about his England debut and how life is in England camps and bubbles and how they manage those. Ollie shares his experiences with Eddie Jones the infamous England Rugby Head Coach. Finally Ollie discusses the Lions Tour and who his starting back line would be and how important the BLM message is for him and how he continues to spread the message that 'Racism has no place in life.'
