On this weeks episode I sit down with Josh Barressi ; a 24 year old who has seen and done it all. After being picked up by the AIS at a young age, Josh rose through the ranks as a talented junior soccer player before finding his way onto an A-League list at just 18 years old. We talk about the highs of his career and cleared up a little rumour about his obsession with scoring goals as himself on FIFA.
The chat focusses on Josh's mental health journey which started creeping its way into his life from a young age and seemed to mirror his career as a horror run of injures began to take its toll. Josh bravely talks about the pressure of being in the game at such a young age and how severely the weight of those pressures can impact ones mental wellbeing. A huge thank you for Josh for coming on the show and I hope you get as much out of this as I did.
