About this listen
I first coached James Haskell when he was a teenager - he had big energy, big personality, and was full of potential. But beneath the surface, he was carrying self-doubt, pressure, and a deep need to prove himself.
In this episode, we sit down for a raw and honest conversation about what was really going on behind the image.
We talk about:
- The impact of being medicated from age 10 and surviving boarding school
- Why he spent years performing, without knowing who he really was
- What therapy helped him uncover about self-worth, confidence, and anger
- The moment he saw his dad's "shadows" for the first time
- Why strength without emotional range isn't leadership
- How marriage, grief, and failure shaped the man he’s becoming
It’s not about rugby. It’s about the work men have to do when the noise stops, and the feelings finally catch up.
