Why would a pro paintball player walk away from the game he loves?

In this deeply vulnerable episode, Paddy Gleason opens up about stepping back from professional paintball to prioritize his mental health. He talks candidly about the emotional toll of competing at the highest level, experiencing male postpartum depression, and the stigma that surrounds mental health — especially for men.

Paddy also shares his powerful story of addiction, the path that led him to drug use, and how he found the strength to fight his way back to recovery. This episode is a raw and honest look at what happens off the field, and why sometimes the most important battles are the ones no one sees.

If you've ever struggled with your mental health, felt alone, or needed to hear someone say “me too,” this is the episode to watch.
