There’s no doubt a lot of us are feeling a bit lost or struggling at the moment.

Well you’re not alone. In Bounce Back, Andrew talks to prominent Australians about major challenges that have been thrown their way, and how they’ve overcome these difficulties on the road to success.

What is the only difference between people who have wholehearted fulfilled lives and those who don't? Those who lived fulfilled lives, believed they were worthy of it. That is according to professional mentor and performance mindset coach Ben Crowe. 

Ben has worked with some of the world's most prolific athletes. 

His work with Ash Barty is seen as pivotal in her finding the enjoyment in Tennis that spurred her to climb to World Number One. 

His work with Richmond Football Club Captain Trent Cotchin and Coach Damien Hardwick, who've led their team to two Premiership victories. 

His work helping Australian Cricketers move beyond their recent dark days through humility, perspective and sense of purpose. 

His work with Tennis star Andre Agassi. His work with World Surfing Champ Stephanie Gilmore. The list goes on. 

It may seem strange, but one of Ben's secrets to achieving happiness, confidence and success in life is to embrace imperfection. Be vulnerable. Be genuine. 

In this last episode, Ben gives us his unique perspective on our guests and provides some insights based on his experience to help you Bounce Back. 

This series has featured some of Australia’s most recognised sports men and women, prominent businesspeople and well-known politicians, allowing them to tell their story, in their own words.

Bounce Back is about promoting well-being and good mental health, by showing that even in the most difficult of times, there are people who you can turn to for support - whether they’re mates, family, colleagues, professionals even your neighbours.

It’s about how to look after yourself when things are tough, believing in yourself and knowing you can come through it even stronger.
