High Performance
About this episode

Danny Cipriani is a professional rugby player, he has played for England, Bath and Gloucester among others. In this episode, Danny takes Jake and Damian through his life - the struggles he faced growing up as a “council house boy” in a private school, coming from a single parent family and the tragedy that has shaped him. He expresses how crucial empathy is and how although people shy away from difficult conversations they are the most important to have. 


Having faced challenges with addiction, relationships and more, Danny talks about how freedom is now such a key aspect of his life, now he is in a positive place. He shares what it took for him to recover from the dark place he was once in and that he now wants to use his learnings to help young people in the same situations he was in.
