Charlie Beech is a former professional rugby player with a career spanning 15 years including stints at Northampton Saints, London Wasps, Bath, Yorkshire Carniegie, Coventry and Doncaster. Having retired from the professional game in 2019 he still plays part time for Hull alongside running his own company Front Row Support - specialising in Business to Business development, sales and training. The culture at his company has been built on his 15 years experience of playing professional sport focusing on straight forward, results oriented, business support. Charlie has been quite outspoken and honest about the some of the challenges he has faced transitioning from playing professional rugby and has written articles offering advice to those going through a similar situation. He has also recently announced a new challenge to run a marathon next year in memory of an inspirational old friend Matt ‘Milton’ King who passed away earlier this year. In this conversation we talk about some of the challenges Charlie faced with retiring from professional rugby and how important it is to address the mental health of professional players just as it is to address their physical health. He talks openly about his experience of mental health and how he found the benefit of sharing his experiences in a group therapy setting and also what it was like playing professional rugby for all that time without the space to feel like he could open up to anyone about his challenges. An inspiring and heart felt discussion with a very warm and humble guy who is now out to help others who have maybe been through their own challenges and life transitions with his new business. A big thank you to Charlie, you can find out more about his journey and connect with him on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlie-beech-frontrow/ Finally, The Post Rugby Podcast would like to invite you to our Free Facebook Group - The Post Rugby Community to connect with other rugby players (current and retired) and like minded people to continue your journey to a happier and healthier life post rugby. The time for raising awareness for improved physical and mental health in the game of rugby is over and the time for taking action is here. I hope you found some inspiration listening to the podcast today and are encouraged to take action by trying some of the things the guest talks about. See you next time :)

Having played for Northampton Saints, London Wasps, Bath, Yorkshire Carnegie, and Coventry, he is now growing a new career as an Action Coach. During this podcast Charlie provides some insightful information to our curious questions: What does coaching mean to you? · Coaching is how well you can coach not how much you know in that area · Transfer your knowledge and allow them to grow enough to take it · Help them see it for themself · Helping people find their skills · Seeing what skills people have and helping them understand how to transfer it · Coaching is helping people · We’ve all lived as long as we’ve lived, we’ve all learned a lot of things and we may discount it because we know it, but it has value and it's just seeing where that fits in the world · You think I’ve got nothing to give but you take a step out and realise you have so much to give · Coaching is being ready to accept that lesson · I think the world is finally waking up to the fact that we need mental health wellbeing as well as physical well being · People need to be coachable – At action coaching, we don’t like it when people say I know, it means you are closed off so we like to change it to; isn’t that interesting · You have to invest your time in coaching · Lyric from Wayward Son by Kansas, “if I claim to be a wise man It surely means I don’t know” What skills are required? · Patience · Resilience · Believe in what you are doing · Business should not be stressful it should be fun · Empathy · Strong communication · Good coaches try different angles · Adaptable Why do you do what you do? · I like helping people · Helping Each other makes the world a better place · Any lessons from the rugby field · You can learn from bad things as well as good ones · You need to be prescriptive with what you expect Finishing round: planting the final seeds for growth……. what one thing can our listeners do today to activate a piece of knowledge you have shared with us? Change your perception, don’t sink into BED, Blame, Excuses and Denial. Take responsibility. Could you share one practice that you engage in, that enhances or maintains your wellbeing? Exercise because it helps your physical and mental health, they are tied together Do you have a poem or inspiring quote that you can share with us? Taken from Rudyard Kipling, If... If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it, And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!
