About Me
No matter our age, background or career stage, how we feel internally shapes the way we learn, lead and live. I believe wellbeing and self-understanding aren’t a luxury, they are the bedrock of growth, connection and long-term success.
I’m a former professional rugby league player spending over a decade at the top of the game, winning Grand Finals and representing my Country… But behind my achievements were personal battles that limited my performance, inhibited my personal growth and prevented me from fully enjoying my success.
200+ Career Appearances
England International & 2-time Grand Final Winner
I spent my rugby league career playing for top clubs and representing my country, experiences that shaped much of who I am today.
Turning Struggle Into Strength
I made my professional sporting debut at 17. I pushed myself to the limits and prided myself on training when others weren’t. Anxiety, discomfort and isolation felt normal. After seven years I burnt out. At the height of my career, having won a grand final at Old Trafford, represented England again and moved to Australia to play in the best competition in the world, I broke down.
Inspiring Change Beyond Sport
The loss of my little brother in 2018 gave me the courage to unpack it all. From then until now has been a constant process of learning about myself and unravelling hard truths. I retired in 2023 at just 29 years old, still in some of my best career form, but helping others discover what I had revealed became my true purpose.
