Episode Summary:
In this week’s Sport Is Life injury Persona Wrap, Ian Hawkins takes a different approach by diving deep into the “bad luck persona” through the story of Tommy Trbojevic. Ian explores the psychological patterns behind recurring injuries, how identity shapes an athlete’s experiences, and the subconscious factors that may contribute to repeated setbacks. Drawing from personal experiences, Ian unpacks how childhood beliefs, subconscious attention-seeking, and ingrained narratives can influence injury patterns—both in sports and life.
