Talks

We are always trying to attract the most relevant Guest Speakers for our Another day group.

Someone who can inspire us and also has their own story to tell.

Enter NRL Superstar Greg Inglis.

After a highly successful career in the NRL, Greg also represented QLD and Australia.

Winning Competitions, State Of Origin series and World Cup’s, along with nearly every individual medal that can be won.

So you can understand how Excited and ‘Starstruck” the boys were when GI addressed the group about all things Mental Health, including his own story and the tools he now uses.

It was a very raw and open conversation regarding Greg’s own battles throughout his career including the massive change he felt going into retirement from Rugby League.

GI opened the floor for questions and nothing was off limits, the group was very appreciative for Greg’s honesty.

Seeing someone so strong and with a profile talk about the same challenges we face every day was very eye opening for everyone in attendance.

Greg also offered tools and advice on ways to handle situations when they arise.

Greg now runs ‘The Goanna Academy’, a program set up to help end the stigma surrounding Mental Health along with helping to improve the social capacity to identify, talk about, and manage mental health for all Australians.

The Goanna academy is Greg’s way of giving back to the community after such a highly successful career in Rugby League.

Another Day will continue to get the best Guest Speakers to talk to and motivate our group.

But WOW, with GI being our first guest, we’ve set the bar high!!

We have big plans, You never know who will be next!!
