EPISODE 1

Talking Grief - with Nedum Onuoha, Claudia MacDonald & Callum Johnson

People deal with grief in different ways, but how does the process impact athletes in their professional worlds? On this first episode of Real Talk, Miriam Walker-Khan talks to former Manchester City player Nedum Onuoha, England and Exeter Chiefs scrum-half Claudia MacDonald and 2010 Commonwealth Games champion, boxer Callum Johnson, who have all lost someone close to them. Speaking openly and honestly, these athletes share how they navigate a life and career without them. This podcast discusses the death of a loved one, which some listeners may find upsetting. If you’ve been affected by anything we talk about in this episode and would like more information on organisations that can provide you with help and support, please head to sky.com/viewersupport. Real Talk is a brand new series which looks at topics that aren’t often spoken about in a sporting context. Please give the series a follow, or subscribe, wherever you get your podcasts. You can also watch Real Talk on YouTube (https://bit.ly/RealTalkSkySportsNews) and across our website (skysports.com), and find us on social media @skysports. Real Talk is presented by Miriam Walker-Khan and is produced by Alice Reeves-Turner, Claire Taylor and Chessie Bent.
