Description
This week Ella is joined by Jonny Wilkinson for a candid conversation on replacing external validation with self-worth. They discuss the disconnect between Jonny’s external accomplishments (becoming one of the world’s greatest rugby players) and his internal struggles, his experience with depression and anxiety, the catalyst for addressing his mental health and the tools that enabled him to transform into the man he is today.
They discuss:
Why external achievements and validation don’t bring lasting joy
Succeeding professionally while struggling internally
The pressure to keep on achieving
Jonny’s experiences with anxiety and depression
Getting off the hamster wheel of acting out of fear and low self-worth
How to reframe your thoughts to accept difficult circumstances and feelings, unconditionally
Cultivating self-trust and a supportive inner voice, and releasing the need to control
Why nothing will change if you don’t apply what you understand
The importance of regulating your nervous system
Jonny’s practices for feeling well
