Imagine reaching the peak of your career, AFL’s No.1 draft pick, a premiership hero, a multi-million dollar contract - only to realise you’re completely lost…

In this episode, Tom opens up about his struggles with anxiety and depression, the hidden mental health battles of elite athletes, and how he found purpose beyond the game. Now, as a mental health advocate and keynote speaker, he’s helping others navigate life’s pressures and break the stigma around mental well-being.
 
🎧 A must-watch for athletes, sports fans, and anyone struggling with mental health.
