My Journey;
I've suffered from mental health challenges for a large part of my life. This has played out privately and due to my sporting profile, largely in the public eye.
I knew that I needed help and admitted myself to a mental health clinic, The Northside Clinic, Wentworthville. From this time, the change to my mental health has been dramatic. I continue to challenge myself and improve my mental health state, every day.
I have come from not knowing who my father is, what was a broken relationship with my mother and a lack of identity, whilst trying to forge a career as a professional rugby league player. I am now happily married to my wife Kayla and have a beautiful daughter Willow, and I am living out my dream as captain of my beloved Brisbane Broncos club.
From then...to today;
