This week, on The Alcohol-Free Advantage Podcast, join me for one of THE most important conversions I have EVER had!
This chat is a gift for all of us!
At just 26, Damian Willemse is already a Rugby legend. The youngest man EVER to win two Rugby World Cups for his Country, South Africa and he is regularly achieving Multiple successes at club level, with his team The Stormers - Damian is flourishing at the very highest level!
This is not just your average sports star; Damian could be one of the greatest of all time.
So, how could an International Cup winning Sports Star possibly ‘IMPROVE’ and ‘ACCELERATE’ his overall performance and well being???
You guessed it - Going ALCOHOL FREE!
As a middle-lane drinker, Damian began to become increasingly aware of the negative impacts alcohol was having on his life. From hangovers to low productivity to weekend lie-ins, even the person he became when he was a few drinks into a ‘binge’ session did not align with the man he knew he was.
So he decided to take a 90-day break - and something incredible happened
Join us for a superpowered conversation, where we chat about: -
- What comes with being a professional athlete, on and off the pitch.
- Dealing with Injury and the impacts on mental health.
- The marginal gains of living AF
- Socialising AF - How it feels and how it changes.
- How the effects of alcohol impact our relationships.
- Living with Gratitude and how to nurture this.
- Occasional Binges and how they take their toll.
I left this conversation filled with admiration for a Young man who epitomises optimal performance and limitless potential. Damian's mindset and actions are a powerful reminder to us all that, no matter how far we have come in life, or how much we have achieved, there's always more that we can access - however that may look to you.
Lets Do this!
Your coach,
Andy
