Episode Summary:
In this episode of Sport Is Life, Ian Hawkins gets real about the inner battles many face when they know they need to make changes—but still hesitate. Whether it’s fear of what they might uncover, imposter syndrome, doubt that self-care is “worth it,” or worrying what others will think, Ian breaks down the psychological blockers that stop people from seeking help. He shares the blunt truth: most breakthroughs come from small mindset shifts, and there’s always a solution if you stay curious and open. You’ll hear inspiring stories, practical insights, and a powerful reminder that investing in your growth doesn’t just change your life—it changes the lives of those around you too.
