53. TRENT FALSON- Managing Mental Health And Spine Surgery

Professional Lifeguard and Bondi Rescue TV Star Trent Falson is a veteran when it comes to facing uncertainty in stressful situations. For almost 20 years he has been rescuing people and in some cases bringing them back to life. And whilst he has trained all his life on how to physically and mentally prepare for these situations, what he hasn't prepared for is what happens when he can no longer do the job he loves.  After major neck surgery, Trent talks us through the physical and mental challenges that come along with being stood down from work, unable to surf or train and his journey managing the pain and rehabilitation on what he hopes will be his comeback to the job he loves most.
