Ex-Olympian explains how embracing vulnerability saved his life - Jack Green with Lou & Fi Dot to Dot Behind the Person

    • Personal Journals

On this week’s episode Lou and I speak to Olympian Jack Green. Jack competed in the London 2012 and Rio 2016 Olympics. Jack has learnt about mental health the hard way, super human on so many levels – able to endure more pain, train harder, run faster coming to a point where he accepted that he was not OK and eventually to an understanding that our mental states cannot be 'fixed'. Something society inadvertently teaches us made worse still when you're heralded as invincible.
