From elite sport and undercover policing to stroke recovery, major surgery, and building multiple successful businesses, Dan Crowley’s life is a masterclass in resilience and determination. In this powerful conversation, Dan speaks candidly about healing, mindset, and the conquering inner drive that has enabled him to rebuild physically, mentally, and professionally, time and again. This is a deeply human story of courage, self-belief, and rising stronger through life’s toughest challenges.

Dan Crowley is a former Australian Wallabies international, undercover police detective, entrepreneur, and author of Undercover Prop. He represented Australia 50 times across three Rugby World Cups and is one of only five Australians to win two, while simultaneously serving in the Queensland Police Undercover Unit.

After surviving a life-altering stroke in 2012 and rebuilding his health and speech, Dan went on to build and scale multiple national service businesses. He later consolidated several traffic management companies into a single ASX-listed entity — now the only publicly listed traffic management company in Australia. Today, Dan is a shareholder and senior leader, focused on strategic relationships, evolution, and the next chapter of life, leadership, and family.
