I will always be much more appreciative of the ability that I have now to affect people in a positive and productive manner than the ability I had to entertain people in a sporting manner back in my late teens and early 20s.
What happens when a promising football career ends abruptly? Kieron Brady knows all too well. Once a professional footballer for Sunderland AFC and the Irish national team, Kieron's journey took a sharp turn when he had to retire at just 21. But that wasn't the end; it was a new beginning. In this episode, Lee Davy sits down with Kieron to discuss his unexpected transition from the pitch to becoming an alcoholism consultant.
Kieron's story is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about channeling his passion into helping others find their way to sobriety. With a unique blend of professional and personal experience, he offers a refreshing perspective on recovery. Beyond his work in addiction, Kieron is deeply committed to equality, having spent over a decade educating and advocating against racism and homophobia. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration from someone who has turned life's setbacks into platforms for change.
