Elite Athlete Back from the Brink of Depression

Former NRL star, Paul Whatuira, has an inspirational story that shows a man fighting back from the brink of despair to reclaim his mind and his health to help young elite athletes to overcome their own battles.

He was ahead of the game — a stellar career playing Ruby League, the sport he loved, a partner, and a baby on the way. But the unrelenting pressure from playing at an elite level for ten years had taken a severe toll on his mental health, culminating in a public breakdown. Here, Paul shares his story of grassroots ambition to sporting success, and a five-year journey to finding his new purpose and mental well being.
