The Changing Room

We are dedicated to witnessing and exploring the emotional journey of professional footballers with the aim to provide insight for those outside of the football environment and validation for those within it.Why? we know there is a a huge gap between the perception and reality of the football journey and this misunderstanding causes hate, resentment and judgement towards players plus loneliness, fear,  illness and, even tragically, completed suicide for some within the game.The Changing Room is a space to illicit change in that perception. With the help and willingness to be honest in their vulnerability, our guests share their emotional experience of their football journey with the hope this will provide more understanding and compassion, which ultimately will benefit the game, those who enjoy it and those who contribute to it.

Looking for former professional footballers, sports psychologists, or mental health advocates who are eager to share their emotional experiences and insights on the psychological challenges within the football industry on our podcast, The Changing Room, to foster understanding and compassion in the sport.
