There’s no doubt 2020 has been a tough year for business. We’ve seen profit margins shrink and supply lines dry up; even the ability to simply be open has been a struggle.

Elite athletes know all about the tough times – injuries, being dropped from the team, off-field problems or just feeling unmotivated.

Rugby league superstar Greg Inglis has opened up about his battle with mental health problems, starting with a stint in rehab in 2017. But it wasn’t enough and after going off the rails in 2019, he finally found help and was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. He is now an advocate of speaking out about mental health issues and encourages others, particularly men, to seek help.

At Carmalk Consulting, I’ve been around sport all my life and I know about getting through the tough times. I’ll work with your business to smooth out those professional bumps. And don’t forget, organisations like Lifeline are there to help you, day and night.

“Seek help, that’s my biggest message. You’ll never be judged. The people who judge you are the ones you don’t want around in your life. It ain’t weak to speak.” – Greg Inglis
