Sam SmithEvery podcast appearance, updated as new ones drop

In this episode of the podcast, we sit down with former rugby player, Sam Smith. At the young age of 26, Sam had to retire from the sport due to a quad injury. The next two years were a downward spiral as he struggled to come to terms with the end of his career and find a new sense of purpose. He tried to distract himself by starting a coffee shop, but it wasn't until he met a life coach that he began the process of healing and finding a new identity. Now, Sam runs a life coaching business that helps athletes transition from sport to live fulfilling lives. He shares his journey of self-discovery and how he learned to be proud of who he is and not want to be someone else. Join us as Sam inspires others to take control of their lives and find meaning in the aftermath of a career-ending injury. 🔹My Rugby Career Ended at 26 🔹What To Do After This? 🔹A Downward Spiral 🔹My Coach 🔹Kicking Your Happiness Down The Road 🔹Ask “What Interests You?” 🔹I Finally Don’t Want To Be Someone Else 🔹My Inner Voice 🔹How Do You Want to Feel 🔹Love & Compassion 🔹Raising My Kids 🔹Categorizing Feelings Learn more about Sam on LinkedIn .
