Taboo on the Terraces

'I'm going to make them proud of me' with Sarah Rhind


Listen Later

Sarah Rhind is the current Hamilton Academical Women's FC number 1. Alongside playing for the Accies in the Scottish Women’s Premier League 1, Sarah also works for Street Soccer Scotland, an organisation that brings football to socially disadvantaged groups, and who Sarah credits with supporting her in her own football career and personal life.

Sarah is easily one of the most inspirational people that we have had on the podcast to date. From an early age she suffered with anxiety and negative self-image, which led to extremely tough periods in her life. This included using self-harm as a coping mechanism, but also later an addiction to drugs. But at her lowest and with the help and support of those around her, Sarah was able to turn her life around. As well as her football, which she credits as always being 'her escape', Sarah also shares other lessons for anyone experiencing similar issues on how they too can find themselves in a much better place.
