A New Way of Being

Recognising You Are Already Enough: Grayson Hart


Listen Later

Do you feel a subtle sense of lack? If you do, you are not alone. It’s part of the human condition – or at least it is when we are identified with the mind. But the truth is, there is a space in all of us that is always fulfilled and content. Our task is to recognise that – and rest there.

Grayson Hart is the CEO and founder of Puresport, and is a former Scotland international rugby player, having grown up in rugby royalty in New Zealand where he was part of the junior All Black team that won the World Cup.

In this episode we discuss our shared philosophical outlook, the point of which is to recognise that wellbeing and happiness isn’t something out there, in objects and the world. It is our true nature.

Recognising that you are already enough and fulfilled is one of the greatest gifts anyone can find – and that is something Grayson discovered, having hit rock bottom after his father died after suffering from drug addiction, and after his rugby career left him feeling unexpectedly empty.

The key message that Grayson shares in this episode is such an important one – and I hope you enjoy our conversation.


In this episode:

  • Coming from rugby royalty in NZ – his uncle coached the All Blacks
  • Growing up around drug addiction with his Dad
  • The consequences of that & seeking attention at school
