Can golf help rebuild your life after a traumatic brain injury?

In this powerful episode of Trauma, Training & Transformation: Exploring How Movement Heals the Mind, I speak with Iain Miller of Golfing Positives about his extraordinary journey from a life-changing traumatic brain injury (TBI) to rediscovering identity, confidence and purpose through golf.

After a rugby tackle changed his life, Iain was forced to confront not only the physical consequences of brain injury, but the psychological challenge of grieving the person he once was and adapting to a completely different future.

We explore TBI recovery, mental health, disability, resilience, identity, rehabilitation and adaptive golf, and discuss why sport can become so much more than physical activity. For Iain, golf offered challenge, community, achievement and a renewed sense of purpose.

This conversation is ultimately about something much bigger than golf. It's about what happens when life changes without warning—and how movement, sport, connection and purpose can support mental health recovery and help us rebuild our identity.
