Matthew Mitcham: From Rehab to 10 Years Sober, Now Helping Others

الوصف

Matthew Mitcham opens up about the moment he realised he couldn’t beat addiction alone — and what it felt like walking into rehab as an Olympic gold medalist. Matt explains the fear, humility and honesty required to recover, how he relapsed early in the process, and what finally made sobriety “stick” in 2016. Now more than 10 years clean and sober, Matt works as a specialist counsellor supporting people struggling with drug addiction, sex addiction, and chemsex. This is a powerful, compassionate insight into recovery, self-worth and using lived experience to help others. Please note: This episode discusses sensitive topics.
