What am I supposed to do now? I've passed those years of I've stuffed them now. Now what am I going to do, like I can't undo what I've done, and you feel so bad as a parent, I know that other people do too, because I've had this conversation with them. Do you want to be the parent who sparks positive change in your children, instead of looking back with regrets about all the things that you think you got wrong, by a change in perspective and a change of focus, you'll be able to be exactly that there. I'm Ian Hawkins, and this is sport. Is life. The purpose of sport, as I see it is to see your vision become a reality, find your voice, create strong connections and learn to trust your body.
