Show Notes
David Cotterill, a former professional football player, knows a thing or two about the pressures of being a top-level athlete. Cotterill, who played international football for Wales, is now retired from the game and is using his experiences to help other athletes deal with the mental side of their careers. 'The David Cotterill Foundation' provides therapy and support for those who are struggling with mental health issues. David is now sober; his story is one of resilience and hope, and it's sure to inspire anyone who is keen to develop a better understanding of mindfulness and how it can help us deal with the psychological challenges we face in life. #cymru #football #mentalhealth #athlete #soccer #wellness #addiction
