In this episode, I sat down with Jackson Hastings, an NRL star who has seen it all – from the highest highs to the lowest lows. Jackson isn't just any rugby league player; he's someone who went from being written off by the league to becoming one of the most talked-about names in the game.

With over 100 NRL games and an incredible stint in the Super League, where he won the prestigious Man of Steel award and saved a club from "certain relegation" not once but twice, Jackson's journey is nothing short of extraordinary.

But Jackson's story isn't just about what happens on the field. In this raw and honest conversation, he opens up about the challenges he's faced off the field, including his battles with mental health, ADHD, and the pressures of living up to expectations.

In this episode:

• Jackson’s Redemption Journey: How Jackson went from being an NRL outcast to winning the prestigious Man of Steel award in the Super League.
• Mental Health Battles: Jackson opens up about his struggles with ADHD, depression, and anxiety, and how he learned to manage these challenges.

• The Super League Decision: The life-changing moment Jackson decided to move to the UK, saving his career and discovering a new sense of purpose.
• Playing for Livelihoods: What it was like for Jackson to play in high-stakes games where his teammates’ futures were on the line.
