In this episode of BrianCast, I am lucky enough to talk with Carlton vice-captain Jennifer Lew. Jennifer is a trailblazer in women’s football with a career spanning over a decade and is highly respected by her sporting peers.   Jennifer opens up about overcoming a severe concussion injury in 2015, her ongoing battles with anxiety and panic disorders stemming from the concussion incident, and daring to defy the concussion stigma in the football industry.   We also touch on the evolution of women’s footy, the challenges of balancing her chiropractor and football professions and her ambition of continuing into her twelfth footy season.   Jennifer’s honest and infectious nature demonstrates why she is loved by so many, and it was an absolute pleasure to have her on BrainCast.   #concussion  #AFL  #VFL  #VFLW #Carltonfc

BrainCast Episode # 2   In this episode of BrianCast, I chat with NRL - National Rugby League and Parramatta Eels legend Brett Kenny. Brett played 265 games for his beloved Eels, represented both his state and country and is considered by many as one of the toughest players to play the game.   Brett generously gave us his time to speak about the alarming prevalence of concussions in the NRL and the fine line of modifying rules to prevent head injury without detriment to the game he loves.   Brett’s insight into the tackling and tactical changes that he believes are causing escalating head injuries is invaluable, so too is his reflections on retirement, mental health and the challenges of life after footy.   I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to speak with Brett, and I am sure you will enjoy what the great man has to say.   #concussion #parramattaeels #mentalhealth #nrl #rugbyleague
