Episode Synopsis

Former professional footballer turned sports pundit, Richie Sadlier joins Nadine O'Regan to talk about his new memoir Recovering and his life growing up in Dublin, joining Millwall, and having to deal with a turbulent aftermath when his career was cut short by injury in his 20s. Now a psychotherapist, Sadlier has fought off his own demons -- he has struggled with depression and addiction over the years, and has faced down other tough realities from his past. He talks about his experiences as well as reflecting on his recent successes -- his memoir Recovering, written with Dion Fanning, took the top sports book award at the Irish Book Awards in late 2019.
