The stigma of mental health in sports, and new business ‘The I in Team’ with Darius Boyd

Ryan speaks with Darius Boyd, former professional athlete of 15 years playing at the highest level of the NRL, with Brisbane Broncos and the QLD maroons amongst others.
Ryan & Darius discuss:

• His journey of being raised by his mum, his dream of playing rugby league and the doubts along the way.
• Darius’ well-publicised break from the game, when he sought help for his mental health.
• The pressure of playing at the highest level and why he doesn’t watch the games on TV.
• The stigma of mental health in the game and why it needs to change.
• His new business ’The I in Team’ and how he’s helping businesses and sporting teams to raise their awareness around mental health, so others don’t go through what he did.
