Intervention to Reinvention - A conversation with Rhys Thomas

The NatLifePod

Well listeners, buckle up! This next episode of the NatLifePod is really quite something. To be honest, this intro really isn’t going to do this pod justice. But what I will say is that this is a real roller coaster of a story, and one that speaks to how hitting Rock Bottom can become the solid foundation of which to rebuild a life that you love. On this episode of the NatLifePod, I’m behind the mic with Rhys Thomas. Rhys, is an ex-international rugby player, who at just 29-years of age suffered a massive heart attack during training. To save his life, Rhys underwent a quadruple heart bypass and now lives life as a battery-powered half-man-half-machine. But this wasn’t rock bottom for Rhys. It’s the trauma that unravelled post open heart and post coma, that became that foundation. We unpack the trauma-led-chaotic lifestyle that finally led to Rhys’ close community stepping into help him through intervention, and the awakening that followed rehab. I firmly believe that we have everything inside ourselves to be the change and this conversation certainly serves as confirmation of that belief. I hope you find as much inspiration from this conversation as I did.
