    #MW15 | Shannon Groves | Resilience and Self Responsibility

    #MW15 | Shannon Groves | Resilience and Self Responsibility

    From the age of 13 Shannon became a carer for her alcoholic mum. Learning to hide alcohol from her, Shannon talks through her life to date along with horrific accounts of caring for her mother.

    The setbacks didn't stop Shannon progressing in her football life before injury ended the opportunity in the UK. Returning to the Island Shannon was a little lost with her identity, but was self aware enough to turn this around and set up a career in helping others to improve fitness and wellbeing.

    Shannon talks candidly about her own mental health challenges and her belief that everyone needs to take self responsibility to look after themselves.

Insightful & relatable podcast

What I like the most about this podcast is that it captures the ability in people to overcome setbacks and achieve their goals, through the correct mindset and the constant observance of healthy mental and physical habits.
Lots of good stuff that you can apply yo your day to day.

Fantastic Podcast - Recommended

With over 40yrs of both participating and coaching in Manx sport, I’m really enjoying hearing other local competitors and trainers spill their life stories and experiences.

The beauty of this podcast is that Martin and Matt don’t rush their guests, and dig deep into their upbringing, lifestyle and career - this results in a highly informative, fascinating and well-rounded audio experience.

Great work guys. 👍
